发帖数: 102 | 1 Over the past few decades, we’ve enriched the labs, drug companies, medical
device makers, hospital administrators and purveyors of CT scans, MRIs,
canes and wheelchairs. Meanwhile, we’ve squeezed the doctors who don’t own
their own clinics, don’t work as drug or device consultants or don’t
otherwise game a system that is so gameable. And of course, we’ve squeezed
everyone outside the system who gets stuck with the bills.
We’ve created a secure, prosperous island in an economy that is suffering
under the weight of the riches those on the island extract.
And we’ve allowed those on the island and their lobbyists and allies to
control the debate, diverting us from what Gerard Anderson, a health care
economist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, says is
the obvious and only issue: “All the prices are too damn high.”

发帖数: 1299 | 8 那文章政治倾向很明显, 用几个没有保险的个例来证明medicare/mediaid的好处, 来证
明政府保险的优点. 从头到尾在推销OBAMACARE.
只有一点和obamacare 不同, 就是支持tout reform.
像那CEO所说, 再怎么砍, 先影响下游的,医院管理层,都是拿7位数的.
现在是左派当势时期, 连好莱污都在捧臭脚.

发帖数: 92 | 10 well, we have the problem before obamacare, don,t we?
i do agree too much regulations reduce the competitions. the article seems
to imply that medicare type of universal is the way to go, but politically
it is impossible.
