Ron Paul's Uninsured Campaign Manager Died Owing $400,000 In Medical Bills
- are u suggesting hospitals not need to have to take people in? or that everyone pays fordeathboy
- more expensive care for terminal people which drives costs higher? What is the point u are trying to make? or just prop?deathboy
- emotional propaganda?deathboy
- It's just ironic (and sad) given Ron Paul's views on the subjectukit
- oh. yea sad for sure. alittle less ironic because paul supports hospitals not giving care to those who cant pay.deathboy
- wonder if hospitals didnt haev to take him they could have evaluated the situation with little cost and deemed him screwed no matter how mcuh moneydeathboy
- screwed no matter how much money. Guess the costs fall on tax payers and not hospitals whcih is also a tad weirddeathboy
- the medical incentives of action are really backwards.deathboy
- The profit made by the medical insurance industry is enough to cover the costs of those who are uninsured. Think about that.mikotondria3
- ..Everyone could pay what they pay now....but everybody could get the treatment they need. It's a lack of political will that directlymikotondria3
- translates into millions of people suffering, in pain and the senseless and embarrassing shortening of life and the loss of loved ones.mikotondria3
- im not so sure of the everyone pays what they do now with no increase in premiums and lack of coverage. It seems hopeful.deathboy
- nor the factors involving research and markets if pooled insurance controls the markets. if they wont pay for certain procedures than lack of research in those.deathboy
- procedures than lack of research in those fields. i dont think a board of people can evaluate and control a market better than the marketdeathboy
- better than the market in cost controls and demandsdeathboy
- and the reduction of profits from companies to cover expense will likely have the negative consequence of special interest lobbyingdeathboy
- special interest lobbying. every scenario i run or see spoken lacks positive incentives for positive outcomesdeathboy
- someone's gotta pay. not now though.... you expect everyone to do that and bankrupt the system.popfodders
