Either way will still create artificial demand for health care and drive up costs to consumers.

i don't understand normies to understand how big pharma works but most of the driven up costs of healthcare really come from medical research (USA companies fund basically all medical research on the planet) and malpractice suits ('murica) -- outside of the general fuckery that is hospitals
like ok cool we could distribute patient care better with socialized medicine than a capitalistic system. what nobody considers is how none of these socialized medicine countries can sustain the level of medical research the USA provides for them, let alone really any without injected money from our capitalistic system.
so basically we could do a bit better providing medicine already available under a socialized system, but then the government essentially owns your body & health and most medical research halts. that AIDS cure that's like 6 years off from the market? yeah that wouldn't be happening if we were Sweden. remember that shrek-eli dude who bought a wu tang album and went viral because liberals hated him so much for driving up the cost of toxoplasmosis medicine? yeah he's like the only person on the planet developing gen 2 medicines for rare diseases that aren't neurotoxic like current 1910's era hackjob era medicines currently used. |
