The other point from that thread is that the whole idea of having to price shop when you need care seems sadistic and inhumane to anyone from any other civilized country.
Even if pricing was transparent, it’s still the wrong way to manage it. Healthcare should be a utility, paid for by taxes, like it is anywhere else in the world that isn’t a capitalist dystopia like the US is.
Apparently our fiscally responsible conservative leaders are a-ok with paying private nursing agencies and clinics more than they would if they just staffed public facilities adequately.
I’m not sure why, but I’m always told that conservatives are “good with money” and “fiscally responsible”, which Ive learned means “good with transferring public money into private coffers”.

There are factions in UK and Canada are clamoring to privatize their healthcare system to be just as good as ‘Mericas!
I’m Canadian. I know.

Conservatives talk about fiscal responsibility but then lower taxes and greatly increase spending for things they want.

That’s because corruption ruins any system.
Not having healthcare as a utility is quite retarded tho.
Cunts
It is barbaric, but it’s also a widely popular and zero cost way to bring all healthcare costs down tremendously in our nation of 340 million people.
It’s a no brainer that will help us as we continue to fight for actual universal healthcare.
