The cost of medical care, in the US, is sky high because some people are making big bucks off of it. Doctor's, Insurance Companies, etc. Sure, they complain about how much they pay out, but they never talk about how much they take in. They seem to have plenty of money left over, to buy off our congressmen (and those don't come cheap). Then, there is the money spent on scare tactics: " Public Health is Socialism!"; "The government will be deciding whether you live or die!", etc.

Who do you think is paying for those expensive ads? Yep! You got it: the AMA and insurance industry. I think that it's time to be calling our congressment, right now, and reminding them who votes to keep them in office. It sure isn't their big money sponsers who vote for them. It is all of the little guys who have been duped by those expensive ads.
