The healthcare industry is taking people for a ride.

[frigidweirdo]

Here are some facts about the US healthcare industry:

1) Each person spends, on average, $2,550 a year on healthcare corruption or waste (that's from $10,466 a year average spending on healthcare). That's $765 billion is wasted a year on unnecessary spending.
2) In the UK each person spends, on average, $3,720 a year on healthcare.They don't have to pay for health insurance companies
3) Administrative costs of healthcare insurance companies are 7% of healthcare spending (or $733 a year on average per person)
4) Health companies spent $258 million a year giving to political candidates and $510 million a year on lobbying.
5) The US rarely has the best results for healthcare, such as death rates from cancer and so on.

This is the ridiculous nature of a system which is designed to make people rich, rather than designed to make people better.

Here is some evidence to back this up.

4) Health | OpenSecrets

5) ALL CANCERS DEATH RATE BY COUNTRY
The US is at 130 deaths per 100,000 for cancer, compared to Spain 127, New Zealand 120, Italy 124.

So the ACA is a dismal failure, is that what you wish us to believe?

Wasn't AFFORDABLE it's main goal which you have just blown apart?

The only thing affordable in Obamacare was the welfare part where coverage was given away free or with premium subsidies. As Pupps said, at the time, on another site - Obamacare was just another welfare program and the first step to socialized medicine.

ACA is a D level guarantor because of opposition from the Right.

When Dems take over, they will slam through single payer with a 2/3ds vote required to repeal it.

If the left were truthful about Commie Care, they would realize it was never about making sure everybody was insured, it was about creating more government dependents.

But since Commie Care caused me to lose my insurance through my employer, I called down there a few weeks ago. What they told me is that in order to keep my doctor and hospital, it would cost me about 23% of my net pay every month. This is what the Socialists call "Affordable." To add insult to injury, it wouldn't cover anything either. $7,000 deductible, and $7,100 out of pocket. Even simple doctors visits have a $50.00 copay.

So now I don't have insurance thanks to Commie Care, but the guy that makes the french fries at McDonald's does. Of course, since I'm a responsible working person, I likely vote Republican. The french fry maker? He'll likely vote Democrat.

Dems had total control of the bill. Not one Republican voted for Commie Care and it still passed. It had nothing to do with Republicans.

A story about the Civil War:
McClellan was in the Peninsula campaign and came to a swollen creek with his staff. They stopped and speculated how deep it might be for a while until one plunged in on his horse. "It's this deep, Sir", said General Custer.

We have placed a healthcare system that wasn't working well at all with an even worse one.

 

[NightFox]

.

.....and you can thank government interference in the health care marketplace for that one, get government out of health care and let competition force providers to compete based on price/quality and you'll have a system that puts customers first instead of the asinine pay for play system that we have today.

Did I mention the ACA? No, I did not. I think it isn't the right way to go, it's not a dismal failure, I mean, jeez, anything that the Democrats do is labelled that automatically.

It isn't affordable, nor is normal healthcare, seeing how much you end up playing in corruption. 7% of all you spend goes on admin for insurance for god's sake, and then 1/4 goes on waste and corruption. Great.

No, it's nothing to do with getting govt out. Like I said, the British pay 1/3rd what the US pay, and that is govt run.

Yes, it's a failure. I get to subsidize the leeches. My premiums have gone up and my deductibles are now as high as the national debt. I dropped healthcare, created an exemption to screw the govt out of the penalty, and created a health savings account.
