[QUOTE="smapple, post: 1488352, member: 55535"] So you're telling me that as a practicing (i'm assuming licensed) doctor with 10 years of experience and your wife working 20+ years you both were either working part time only and didn't get benefits or were working full time but still didn't get benefits, and you needed ACA to afford health insurance? If that's not the case then I'm not sure what you mean by "you and me". I listed the 4 because they were "immediately identifiable" and something could be done about them. Seeing that you didn't identify any other costs I just have to assume you had nothing to disagree about but disagreed anyway out of spite. Take 10 seconds to google "hospital financial statement". Pick any pdf that shows up. Or if you have a hospital you prefer, go to their website and check out the financial statement. You'll notice that the biggest expense is almost always "salaries" and, if the hospital bothered to list it, "benefits". When I said "drugs" I was talking about the pharmaceutical industry, but since I didn't specify that I can see how you would confuse what I meant with your gripe about $50 Advils. You still don't seem to understand why hospitals are so expensive and it will continue to be expensive when an entity, in this case the government, steps in and says it will foot the bills. Either that or you simply refuse to understand. Just so we're clear, you're denying that having less dense populations per hospital will help the ER problem? If you bothered to try to understand the idea behind more doctors and more hospitals maybe you'd have an actual retort instead of proving my point with your comment that prospective students are turned away. It's pretty offensive that you assume I watch FOX and listen to Limbaugh since I do neither of the two. You really need to change up your talking points. You obviously have problems with reading comprehension if you think my last paragraph was about "preventative care coverage", it was about taking care of your own health as much as possible instead of expecting hospitals to do it for you. Not sure how that point went over your head. [/QUOTE]
