You also have way more affordable health care. Your insulin never went up 1,000 percent did it?
The problem was never who pays, it was always who gouges. As long as Big Pharma and the hospitals are making up prices out of thin air the patients will be screwed.
Take Yale medicine, they bought up all the affordable private practices, kicked out the doctors, and brought in PA's who are qualified for much of what doctors do but aren't allowed to have their own practice.
The Robber Barons are rubbing buck wild and no one is able to reign them in.
