Re: Those don't look like the ones that my wife quotes

A complete shakeup of the medical establishment is inevitable. Too many people have no coverage of any kind for the current system to survive.

For example, I have a ticking gene-bomb that will kill me with near 100% certainty some day, and no coverage of any kind.

That I'll agree with

The US system is insane, and the incentives make the inevitable path of the system increasingly headed on a collision course with what is plausible.

Of course the same is true for many things in our society, ranging from the portion of the GNP consumed by government to university tuition.

There is no certainty in life. Except that you'll die someday.

Cheers,
Ben
