Ok folks.
The reality is that health care has to be rationed. We cannot provide 100% care for 100% of the people. But no one can say that, politicians, insurance companies, doctors, and even us.
When I grew up it was rationed. We knew the doctor would cost money and we made decisions accordingly.
Exactly. In a system of infinite resources, somebody is going to be the “death panel.” Our choice is whether it’s CMS or BCBS’s boardroom.
Yes, just like certain foods, alcohol, clothing, houses, etc....some people BUY better things than others, because they have more money!
