Pill Makers, Policy Buyers and Health Diminishers
The Broken American Health Industry.
What "consensus" calls factual is not at all.. its lies or mis/disinformation.
Lobbying in congress for big health businesses and pill companies has siphoned money out of consumers ( the aim of business ) and has paid off politicos for their consent ( aim of lobbying ).
I think we would have consumer bargaining power if there existed private companies facilitating entities ( original aim of HMO perhaps ) that would draw the funds from government ( our collected taxes ) and allow consumers choice of which doctors / hospitals to see and which pills ( if any ) to take...
This "middleman" of sorts will only collect a fixed amount or percentage of business, nothing more... and these can be rated for their service and betterment of people's health much like the English system rewards their doctors for the health of their patients, unlike here where the doctor is rewarded for saving the insurance company money ( backwards to what health "care" is supposed to be ).
We see investors and those at the helm not wanting to let that money and power go... who wouldn't be tempted to keep it if they were in that position?
But this needs to come to an end.... and the English model, the Canadian model and the French models are great examples of "working" systems, not perfect systems... nothing is perfect here... only works in progress.
