Excellent point. The only thing govt. needs to do is stop the price-gouging so the people in the U.S. don't pay 10 times the cost for the same exact prescription medications or hospital stays, etc.
Hospitals billing people $50 for a single paper dixie cup to take a single $10 tylenol is a total ripoff.
And surgical procedures??? Holy fuck.
There is a huge "medical tourism" industry so that people can fly first class to other countries, stay at a 5 star hotel, and have surgery done. And with all of that it's still a total cost that is about 1/4th of what you pay in the U.S.
I'm not saying to go to another country for an emergency heart transplant. lol
I'm talking about non-emergency surgery's. You can google up medical tourism and you'll start finding agency's that book it. And the pricing is incredible when you compare it to U.S. price-gouging.
