The simple way to instantly fix health care!!!

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

you have no clue as to what you are proposing?

I'm proposing a transition to capitalism. Now do you understand????

No you are not. You apparently have no clue as to what you are talking about. Almost everything you have posted is either dead wrong or will not work the way you propose.

How would that cause prices to drop? .

its called capitalism
its called capitalism. When people shop with their own money they drive prices down. Now do you understand?

why not give best example????

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

will not work the way you propose.

you mean when people shop with their own money they will drive prices up rather than down???

 

[Mr Natural]

So that $200 doctors office visit will only cost me forty bucks?

Sounds like a plan!

Let's say I manufacture widgets. The widget cost 1 cent to make. I put a price of 10 cents on the widget but only 1/2 the people can afford to pay for the widget. The government starts giving the other 1/2 money to buy widgets, is that going to make the widgets cost less?

The only thing in a capitalistic world that will drive prices down is competition. THAT is the only way we drive prices down. Now, how that is done is the real question.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

First, you already had that[price competition] BEFORE the ACA.

totally absurd and wrong.
McCarran Furguson made national competition illegal in 1946. Care to try again???

exactly and when people are shopping with their own money providers will have to compete on basis of price and quality. 1+1=2

LOL, how much Health Care Insurance have you written? How many times have you actually compared prices? Prior to the ACA you could look at 20 companies and see 20 prices. You have no idea as to what you're talking about.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Prior to the ACA.

and still today interstate competition is illegal. Do you get it now???

Trump's plan is a huge bureaucratic libsocialist mess, much like Obamacare, that is hard to understand or support. What could be easily understood, broadly supported, easily understood and implemented, and reduce prices 80% is putting everyone on Medicare, publish prices, and give everyone vouchers to buy health care that could be converted to cash if unspent at the end of the year.

As prices slowly dropped 80%, the govt could reduce the vouchers , and taxes to pay for them, accordingly until eventually most people could afford their own health care.

Isn't Medicare going broke? At least the trust fund for Part A is and the other areas are on shaky financial ground as they depend on revenues. How does your plan fix these fiscal issues? It sounds like they will put more weight on an already unstable system, which I'm not sure was designed to handle the massive amount of people that your plan would bring in.

Yes Medicare is going broke now but by making it capitalist (vouchers and published prices) prices will come down 80% and it will be hugely in surplus.
and which point it will have a huge surplus.

Prices will never come down as long as we continue to misuse insurance and create false pricing and demand.

You aren't very good at this son......you don't get to shift the goal posts or quote half of a post to try and make a bogus point.

bogus point that capitalism will drive down prices 80%???????? Why bogus????

Do what every other first world fully developed country does...Go to single payer.

Canada enjoys far cheaper healthcare and isn't ass deep in debt because of it.

Couldn't we just stop prepaying for things we can and should be paying for on a go forward basis? Or better yet, if they want to pre-pay couldn't we use co-ops and cut out the middlemen?
