I tell you though, they can at least fix things nowadays. Some of those surgeries and meds in the 1940s-60s 🫨

Boomers/silent generation have like 75% of the wealth, they are all aging out; Private Equity is there to take that wealth as they charge $3-$5000 (or more) a month for retirement home/assisted living ect….

It ate groceries and clothing.
Hot dog and soda at Costco still $1.50
Shirts that cost less than $5 exist and they did 50 years ago.
This is why the trade war is so bad. Rare earths and clothing was made in the usa but it was all 4x the price

It is still just 100%
Who cares how it is allocated?

Would supporting free education and increasing the supply of family physicians and dentists help solve this dilemma? In addition, allowing people to purchase medicine from low cost countries which have socialized bargaining units.Â
How much of the costs above are for doctors, equipment, hospitals and pharmaceutical? Each component?Â

The average age in the US has been progressively become older since the 1940’s. As age increases, healthcare expenses tend to go up.
There are other reasons as well, but the age/expense correlation is very salient.

Cheap crappy food causes the health crisis.
Pretty easy to see that in this causation/speculation chart.
So this is why they don’t want socialized medicine. Because then they allow insurance companies to cook the books for them.

The insurance cabal mandated by financiers and governments ate the economy. Add up how much you paid for all your insurance policies and subtract what you got in return. If you got reimbursed for a claim, add how much more you paid in addition to recover losses. Look at how much your bank and doctor pay for insurance that adds to your bill.

If people did not have to work 2-3 sometimes 4 jobs to survive and had more free time then mental health, physical health, and productivity would increase. People are not thriving they are being dehumanized and destroyed by greed. There is nothing civilized about our society it’s a death cult

What’s crazy to me is seeing clothes and footwear shrink so much even though I think people buy more in quantity than previous generations. Global markets have made consumption goods so much cheaper now.

Every other industrialized country that has faced this challenge has adopted some form of single payer. The US is the outlier, and the results show.

One thing is for sure, mouth breathing redditors will not attribute any fault to the New Deal, Great Society or the ACA.
