Quote:While "SAD" - Standard American Diet - has caused health problems,...
Wow, Eric and Warren agree on something.
Warren Wrote:it's not directly related to health care jobs; it is related to longevity declines in some groups, but since those are declines, obviously health care hasn't been able to fully compensate.
Wadda bout all those A1C testers, bariatric care, nurse, jobs?
Quote:=Warren
The primary reason health care is a growth industry is because of the preferential status given it by tax law, in a way that encourages inefficient use of resources by tying health care costs to employers rather than to the individuals that benefit.
VAT tax + single payer set up. [I deserve the same health plan as my Congress critters.] They are to serve Rags, not the other way. I'm paying part of their salaries. Fold all DC Cadillac plans into the same plan Rags has. Eric's already on Medicare so not much would change for him. Warren and Rags would have the same plan as Eric and the Congress Critters. Now
You still need regulations or perhaps some law already on the books for this nonsense>

Now... here's where free trade would do wonders. Yes it would. People should be allowed to import drugs from where that drug is marketed and passes safety. If some Big Pharma practices extortion, I think that's a crime and the CEO's of the offending company(s) need to go to prison. In the meantime to trial, see if the same drug can be imported at a much cheaper price.
