Here’s my health plan:
Get rid of medicare/medicaid and leave everything else alone.
I pay $364 per month and my former employer contributes $?, for one sorry ass plan. I cannot afford a “free” plan from the damn government.
All I want from the government is a strong military to protect my old self and I’ll pay my taxes for that with a smile on my face.
Bingo.
The government represents nearly 50% of every retail healthcare dollar. Medical providers lose money on almost every medicare/medicaid transaction. In order to stay in business they must make up the difference with insurance providers and the poor people without any insurance at all.
Get government out of retail healthcare.
Let’s repeal the Health Maintenance Organization Act of 1973 while we’re at it.
