THE CASE FOR MEDICARE FOR ALL
What we have now, prior to Obamacare,
is medical care for only those who can afford it and the rest can
die. Obamacare is a start, albeit a flawed one. The drug companies
and medical equipment suppliers and insurance companies all end up as
winners under Obamacare. They will be able to secure even greater
profits from their government-provided patent monopolies since the
ACA does little to rein in costs. As a result, we will still be
paying close to twice as much for drugs and medical devices as people
in other wealthy countries that have national healthcare overseen by
their governments. The agenda now has to be to squeeze the parasites
out of the health care system and bring down the costs.
