Whoa! Even one of ... ( 1 month ago by digitalnow)
Whoa! Even one of the richest men in world said that his assistant pays more in taxes than he does. You need to find a new source of information, cause the ones you use now are feeding you a bunch of lies. BTW, the rich send their production off shore, hire slave labor when the can, and pay little taxes.

The top 1% richest people in the USA pay 32% of ur total taxes.
the fee for service ... ( 1 month ago by ProprietorOfSelf)
the fee for service system did work exceptionally well and pinkyshow didn't really do a very good job of discrediting it. OF COURSE there is incentive to provide a quality service in the fee for service system! the market creates competitive solutions to human problems.
when doctors ... ( 1 month ago by ProprietorOfSelf)
when doctors compete for patients, the consumer wins. in order to win more patients and ensure that customers keep returning, doctors will provide quality services and, in doing so, guard their personal reputations. as long as human beings are greedy, free market healthcare WILL work. if we had a free market system, there would be no healthcare crisis, just as there wasn't a healthcare crisis prior to government involvement.
the potential for ... ( 1 month ago by ProprietorOfSelf)
the potential for failure and excessive costs in a fee for service system exists when the government begins licensing service providers, and thus restricting competitive entry into the industry. this is protectionist legislation which restricts the amount of service providers available and allows the existing providers to charge high rates for their services.
but the worst ... ( 1 month ago by ProprietorOfSelf)
but the worst conceivable system imagineable is one in which healthcare is monopolized by a single service provider. any economist can tell you why market monopolies are bad. monopolies, by their outlawing of competition in any given industry, are NOT subject to fair market price. they charge high prices and provide poor quality services. there is no incentive to innovate, make production more efficient, or lower prices, because there is no competition.
jsgoodfella, which ... ( 1 month ago by digitalnow)
jsgoodfella, which taxes are you talking about? Do you mean income tax? You do know that that is not the same thing as payroll tax? right? Those who make the least, pay the most in payroll tax. Once you make $100,000.00 you don't pay payroll taxes on the rest of the money. So, if you get one mill in payroll, you only pay payroll tax on $ one hundred thousand of that.
I meant our, not ur ... ( 1 month ago by jsgoodfella)
I meant our, not ur, sorry about that What I meant was income tax. Oh, and the top 10% pay 64.2% of total government revenue. The rich give the government most of its money.
You are right. The ... ( 1 month ago by jsgoodfella)
You are right. The normal laws of supply and demand don't work in healthcare, and I do not want the U.S. government to regulate healthcare, thus screwing it up.

tHE ENTITTLED (WW2 GENERATION) IS THE LAST OF THE PEOPLE WHO GET CARE/ THE AVERAGE COST TO TREAT THEM IS 200,000 PER YEAR. THIS IS WHAT IS MAKING THE SYSTEM UNEQUITABLE. HEART BI PASS'S AND OTHER "SUPER TREATMENTS" KEEP THE SYSTEM BROKE AND PRICES CLIMBING. HOW ABOUT SIMPLE HEALTH CARE FOR THE POOR? JUST TO HELP PREVENT OR ARREST THE CONDITION?

People are their own worst enemy. They run to the doctor for anything to include getting a doctors note to get out of work. You bastards are destroying health care in America.

The healthcare "crisis" occured because government has already regulated health care. Its stupid, there needs to be no more government interference.
Health care was ... ( 4 weeks ago by CJohns53)
Health care was provided to everyone at one time before HNO's took over. The increasing costs of file keeping, code management and paperwork required by these new HMO's costs the doctors and hospitals a fortune in just these things alone. When I was a kid, most people who worked had Blue Cross blue Shield, and the doctors didn't have to do anything except turn in a bill and get the money the were owed. I didn't have to have a job to buy insurance. I paid $150 a month for full Blue Cross coverage

Pinky may have a liberal stance in many of her videos, but how is discussing the state of our health care system make someone a "dumb ass liberal"? Do you think health care is important to liberals only? That's insulting liberals, independents, and conservatives.

hey 1963, you're funny. I am a person who pays capitol gains tax, and I am a person who hires other people. You, poor fellow, can not think.
Employees, not ... ( 2 days ago by rusty2b)
Employees, not employers, should deduct health insurances cost.
Health care cost would be less wild if individuals held the purse strings on health care expenses.
Individuals would still band together to get a good deal and fairness from insurers.
Our current financial mess tracks back to Congress enabling FREDDIE MAC and FANNY MAE. 2.5 trillion of easy to write (no down payment, no income proof) mortgages since 2001.
Don't expect government arranged health care to be done right.
