I figure some of those costs are totally unnecessary and could be greatly reduced or cut all together. If St. Jude can do it, others could also.
I’m just trying to think of a way for the government to get out of the healthcare system...except for possibly Medicare since people have already paid their own money into that system. But who knows, if the entire country could have private donations for hospitals and clinics, even Medicare would not be needed. Do away with it, also Medicaid, and Obamacare...what a concept!
St. Jude is so specialized, and attracts donation/charity funding, due to treating cancer in children. The Shriners’ hospital/s also attract donations from people who do not want children to suffer.
I don’t think people are inclined to send charitable donations to some place that is doing knee replacements and appendix removals. Just sayin’.
