Default Re: Worth Watching

Our system here is so complex, it would take years to turn it into what other countrys have. It would entail lose of jobs which is not good either for one.

We can write off on our tax's medical expenses which is a joke, it takes paying 75% of your yearly income to medical issues. Then one only gets back or a tax credit of 5 dollars per hundred paid which is nothing at all.

Maybe simple answers to the system we have would work here.

Let the insurnace companies, med/pharmacutical duke it out on fees and prices with the Gov..

Meanwhile provide at ease medical/medications to all citizens. Whatever insur rate each citizen can pay goes to the insur company's ( a set %) fair percentage. then the Gov and them can figure out how much the Gov pays. Let the powers battle out any loses.
Not leaving their own people hurting and dying while they figure it out. !!!
