>> but according to you it has destroyed the health care system already. It is in the process. I believe I've been totally clear about that. But the cracks are showing and it is very early in the process. >> So far they are not killing anything in my family's case...I will tell you what has happened to my and my wife's health plans...in both cases, preventive care has now become free and no longer subject to the deductibles. In her case, she has a private plan, the rate has remained exactly the same AND last year she received a rebate from her provider because the company was operating outside the limits set by ACA for admin costs. Sooooo, her costs and mine have both gone down for both reasons. I have no idea what plans you're referring to but I can tell you with 100% accuracy that it is NOT "free". Someone is paying. There is no "free" health care and you are smart enough to know that. >> The way he figures it doesn't cost him anything...his insurance company pays for it (even though in the end the costs are passed on to him)....AND, he is from a generation that doesn't question doctors. That goes on everyday, thousands of times a day. That is what is wrong with US health cost. On this we agree. And the underlying cause is government intervention. Had government stayed out of it, we wouldn't have this problem. Until government GETS out of it, we will.
