torrzent Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 21 minutes ago, Thaidream said: I did not indicate everything in life should be free- but I do believe that prices are way too high for medical care and it is driven by for profit insurance; for profit hospitals and doctors and pharmaceutical companies as well as for profit medical schools. While doctors and technicians should be paid a fair wage- they should not be paid as they are now. Any yes- I would make medical schools lower their tuition and pay for it by the Government. I would also indicate that people in the medial industry who get free medical training be sent to areas which are rural and lacking in medical personnel to pay back their free training. In addition, I would force the Pharmaceutical industry to lower their prices and if they refused I would break their patents and establish a Government Pharmaceutical Industry and make the drug at cost. In addition, I would indemnify medical personnel against law suits and take the lawyers out of the equation. Costly lawsuits-many which have no merit- have caused a huge increase in medical care. As far as research- I can assure you I know this subject well. I have a background in Insurance; have worked in Hospitals and know exactly how they work and how the pricing is done. I would suggest those who doubt any of what I say do your own research- I have no intention of doing it for you. And if you don't believe me- no problem- continue to pay and pay. Until the World accepts the fact that healthcare is a human right guaranteed by the United Nations Declaration of Rights nothing will change. Your Governments will tax you and use your money for bombs and bullets; for profit doctors and hospitals will become hugely wealthy; the pharmaceutical industry will limit your access to life saving drugs and a certain portion of your fellow citizens will die because of this. Is this really the World you want? The current world is preferable to the one you advocate. Thank god you are not in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaidream Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 If I was in charge the World would be compassionate- there would be no homeless- there would be no poverty and I would make sure people like you and your ilk paid for it. Don't believe me- continue to pay and castigate those who can't but as sure as the sun rises and sets- what I propose will come ...People are fed up with the current system. Nuff said!!!

Thaidream Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 It's not about me or you - it's about creating a society in which people get the healthcare they need regardless of whether they have money; who they are; where they are or any other extraneous factor. It's also about creating a caring society in which people can float ideas, have them examined and adopted without being attacked or labelled. It's a sad commentary on the state of the World- when providing free healthcare is considered revolutionary. Unbelievable!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of an insurance is not the become back what you paid. The Idea behind this system is that you will be covered in the case of the cases. many Insurance will still insure you if you start with them before the age of 66 or 70. And if they not do.. you should have done a research of your insurance before. Sometimes the cheapest is not always the best! >"Sometimes the cheapest is not always the best!" Well... obviously. A Chevy is not as good as a Bentley Continental GT. But a lot more people can afford a Chevy than can afford a Bentley. Most people do not have the money for the best.

I never told you have to take the most pricy one. As this also probably not will be the best. But you should look that you take the best for your option and not only go for the cheapest. You already compare a Chevy, which probably would not be the cheapest. Maybe the Chevy is the right choice. But with your statement about "looking down on us lowly peons" I become understanding that you yourself looking down on yourself? I don't care on how much money others have as I am not rich as well.

Don’t kid yourself. Someone is indeed paying for it all. And governments have no money of their own. Either they heavily tax their citizens to pay for it, or they borrow the money and put the burden of paying for it on the backs of future generations, or a combination of the two. It’s NOT FREE ! !

I was just trying to find the one guy who's broken his spine four times, all rips, a serious brain injury and a few more, just to see how he's doing. Unfortunately, when typing Thailand you will find very strange GFM beggars. One guy needs money to move to Thailand for a visa, etc..https://www.gofundme.com/daveinthailand Then the two ladies who were arrested in CM: https://www.gofundme.com/release-misty-and-dannielle-fund Another guy wants to help sick animals on Ko Phangan.... https://www.gofundme.com/help-for-sick-animals-of-thailand I could go on and on and on and I've totally lost my trust in certain social websites that take a good amount of cash. GFM, for example, 5 % of each donation, plus the payment processor fee of 2.9 % + $ 0.30 per donation. It's of course not in their interest to investigate if people are telling the truth, or only "making some money." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
