This topic deserves intelligent dialog and it's no surprise when is turns into a bunch of dribble filled with opinion and very little fact. We should be discussing why medical care is so expensive, not who's paying for it. Where's the money. A middle class family should be able to pay for routine medical care without insurance as we used to. What happened? I believe for profit medical care happened. Shareholders, attorneys, CEOs, etc profiting from others illness. I believe in free enterprise but this system we have created is in a profit feeding frenzy. (IMO)
