I understand that, but I think it's more like "Let's all charge as much as possible without making our customers leave the country to get health care" then "Let's charge a bit more by ourselves". We're not talking about just Pepsi being expensive. We're talking about Pepsi, Coke, Shasta, and every other brand of soda being very expensive, all at once. Only we're not talking about soda, we're talking about health care.
All 45 million of them have spinners and pinewoods? |
Again, I'd be quite happy to see some sort of anti-trust suit brought up if that's what you are stating that healthcare industry is scamming the citizens.
As person who's mother has worked in the healthcare industry for 40 years, I've followed it since I could read. She's working in many aspects of the industry and neither of us find any kind of collusion but just costs of current technology and competition driving up the prices.
and no not all 45 million. I'm stating that of that 45 million there is a good portion that doesn't bother to spend their money on things that they NEED as opposed to things that they WANT.
I'd be happy to agree with everything being said if people were not impoverished and barely even able to feed themselves. Those on WIC/Welfare seem to have healthcare coverage.
There's a young lady I work with here, she states she isn't interested in working full time because it puts a damper on her spirit and creativity. Yet she puts in full time hours for many years now, but doesn't get any health care benefits because she is considered part time. Again, she CHOOSES to not have healthcare.
