Repeat after me: healthcare should not be profit driven..

Healthcare should not be profit driven.

You asked me to.

I'm glad that I live in a country with socialized healthcare.

I'm glad for you too. Sometimes I wonder what life would be like if my parents had stayed in one of three countries we lived in before settling in the US.

Insurance is just a bad model for healthcare.

I don't have any problem with hospital workers being fairly compensated. They have difficult jobs, and doctors are highly skilled and have expensive student loans to pay off. But the cost of care in the US is astronomical compared to any other industrialized nation.
