[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 4038725, member: 18225"] Irrelevant. Let’s say we cover everyone to 50%. Everyone gets checkups, we catch the diabetes before it sets in, etc. You’re more than welcome to buy supplemental insurance for crazy stuff. The $ we currently spend on the derelicts who show up at the ER is insane. The $ we spend treating folk who now have employer health insurance but never had health insurance before is insane. Imagine a world where it was simple to show up to a doctor (IRL it’s never that simple, tell me about your last DMV experience). You go to your doc once a year, your burgeoning illnesses are caught early and treated, before they blow up into a hot mess that costs everyone 1 Gabillion dollars under the current system. Our current system is designed to simply maximize profits for insurers and hospitals, and has very little to do with actual healthcare or insuring that the populace is in a basic standard of general health in the first place. Instead, Americans are the sad guinea pigs of ‘Big Pharma’, who tax us and the US Guvment for maximum profit. It doesn’t have to be this way, just saying. [/QUOTE]
