Actually the only person getting unhinged here is you........ the fact you say you don't care why something costs what it costs IS the problem... look at what the state of Ohio insists the carriers who are licensed to sell insurance in your state are forced to sell everyone in your state... you want lower costs and good care? It sure isn't going to be single payer. and it certainly is not going to be Obamacare.... since you don't care that the cost of healthcare is a huge component of legislation and malpractice insurance then you are no more informed than the LIV's you love to post about here.
See, that's where people like you get into a twist, and why Republicans continually lose elections.
What I've posted didn't fit with your immediate, charged world view, so you got all hot and bothered. Now I have two of you calling me names, because, well... I'd better keep that one to myself.
I work in healthcare, I know what goes into the costs. I know how the uninsured use the ER, and how much is reimbursed by the government for charity work, and how much is a loss that must be passed on. But, when I buy things, I don't do a cost breakdown before I buy it. I know what it costs and I try to get the best value. If that makes me low information, then either you're totally confused, or almost everyone is low information.
Tell me, oh wise one, on your last lap top, how much of the total price was material cost, how much was labor cost, how much was overhead? Or didn't you do that analysis?
As for single payer, I said it several times, but you two refuse to read what I'm saying, you give it your own twist. I don't want it, and it's coming, but you you'd rather throw some more ignorant insults my way.
Both of you now, together, post to me... "Why don't you go back to the DU?!"
Friggin' twits, no wonder the GOP can't get people elected to anything more important than dog catcher.
