Said affection has always.. surprised me in light of this.
This debate was hard to find aside from Crowder's upload.
And the reason I say Ted Cruz crushed, is because he's pretty much the Anti-Bernie to this woman.
"Your story is VERY COMMON now. It's a problem and its endemic."
I'm paraphrasing.
socialism is like coming up with a hypothesis, and testing the data until it fits said hypothesis, even though you have no idea how to do so
had a different subject
and actaully, I'm somewhat for socialized healthcare, I do wish we could figure out a way to pay for it
because I don't think peopel should go broke because they get sick and/or unlucky
i've seen it too many times and while I know it has it's own problems, I actually would like to see a feasible socialized health care
I'm also for the alterative, making it so damn cheap that everyone can easily afford it through capitalism
either way
I was gonna say, you're going to have to drop the price either way
yup
and I do believe its artificially high right now
due to lack of negotiation
I've completely forgotten this, but.
lack of ability to negotiate I should say
What is it that's caused the medical costs to go through the roof?
I also want Drs to be able to make money
... The most disappointing answer of all.
at least in the US
its not just one thing
?
Well you didn't list the things..
do I have to?
I mean its pretty standard reasons
High cost of entry to become a doctor is one
Okay but
I've forgotten the standard reasons.
for-profit insurance, lack of competition, for-profit drug companies, for-profit education for drs, for-profit student loan companies (and btw I'm a capitalist, I just think most of the costs of obfuscated so not easy to compete)
Patients pay the bill ultimately for doctors going to school
Dirty tactics by insurance in general
insruance meanting health insurance and malpractice
hospitals charge different rates and many times you can't just "shop around" because the billing codes are "hidden" unless you know how to navigate the beauracracy
and that's just for starters
and again, I'm for competition and not for socialism, but that's not what we're talking about here
Ah, one more thing I can blame the colleges for.
I want these companies to be able to make money to provide a service
Seriously what the shit are we doing.
