All that preventive care costs. Just as critical care costs. All health care costs. From a strictly cost perspective, the cheapest route is no health care at all. Duh. The next cheapest route is pay as you go. The next cheapest route is private subscription to HMOs. Beyond that, it starts getting pricey.

"Demand would drop dramaticlly if life expectancy is lowered."

Thanks for explaining the secret of cost savings under socialized medicine. Denying care has been an effective tool to reduce life expectancy in other countries with socialized medicine.
