Nice theory, but "a little" socialism always turns into "a lot of" socialism, as we have seen with the Medicare we have now. Once the principle that some people should pay for the medical care of other people is codified into the law of the land, it's just a matter of time.

And your recommended solution is what? I'd like to see it The Prescription Drug Panderation Act killed and have written my duly elected representatives from House of Representatives all the way to The White House. Beyond voicing my opinion that this was a bad decision, what exactly do you reccommend?

The health care system in this country is in trouble anyways. The advent of "preventative medicine" has turned people into healthcare "consumers". The problem is, they want to consume all the time for any reason-always at someone else's cost. They think the co-pay on the prescription covers the cost of it-wrong! People are more interested in living off the effects of stress-diabetes, heart attacks, depression, anxiety--most of the medicines we now need?
