Don't get distracted! The system is corrupt and against regular people regardless of the presence of illegals. The prices they charge have NOTHING to do with their costs, and this is by design!
Bonus for the deep state, they theiyr illegals in there and tell us they are the problem while talking them we don't want them to be able to go to the doctor.
This country actually is so prosperous that we could handle the illegals in the medical system... provided that once they're better, they get shipped back home, but that is another problem entirely.
The issue here is that big medicine's customers are pharma and insurance, and they've changed "cure" to "manage symptoms" - USA residents are 5x as medicated as anyone else in the WORLD. Get everyone off the pills!
You are correct to a point and your following posts are thoughtful in supporting your statements. I think the illegals ARE part of the problem because they receive medical care for free usually in ER's. Hospitals have funds to support this and this would have to come from the profit from overcharging regular, insured patients like you or me. This plays into Saul Alinsky's plan to overwhelm the system so as to help collapse our entire nation. It works pretty well. There are many other aspects of the problems we have in the medical field... you address many. Our medical system is destined to fail because it puts too much power into the hands of people who are not doctors and who care NOTHING about helping people to be well or stay well.
Do not deflect the issue- illegals are a separate problem. They contribute to this, but are NOT the cause of this.
Dale Folwell is a hero fighting a difficult crusade. The "health" cartel has two customers- big pharma and big insurance. We the people have but been their customers for many many years now.
Patients don't own their health care any more than a pet dog or head of cattle owns its health care. And we're more like the latter than the former.
Capitalism at its finest. And I say that as a Capitalist.
People generally don't go into Pharmaceuticals and Hospital Administration because they want to help people out of the kindness of their hearts. They want to make money.
Unless you want healthcare to be run by the government, this is how it's going to be.
Are you allowed to be without insurance? Are "health" providers allowed to stray from protocol? Are "health" providers allowed to run their business as they wish, choose their patients, choose the meds they offer? Who does government protect against liability? Who has stupidly high education loans, malpractice insurance costs...? Who has been indoctrinated into big pharma and gets destroyed if they stray from the narrative?
How is any of that remotely capitalism?
I forgive you for having been indoctrinated by government miseducation systems. History also has not been taught but has been mutated beyond recognition.
Yes, you are allowed to be without health insurance. Trump ended that idiotic health care mandate where you had to pay a fine if you didn't have health insurance.
Every other capitalist industry also has some level of regulations and govt. intervention. Would you argue there is no such thing as capitalism because of those examples?
Health care industry makes a profit on their product/services and want as little government regulations as necessary. How is that not Capitalism?
It's always weird when non-libs call for more government interference because they think a product or service is too expensive.
You're still stuck in the paradigm. The cartels have government interference, on their side. That's the fascism. Corporations+government, tyranny over the people.
They have to make up for the money the illegals cost them on American citizens. Never forget that.
Agreed, that’s why our medical system is so expensive. The entire system needs to be overhauled.
NOPE

We can start by deporting all illegals.
Yes but that won't help the medical theft. Or murder. Different problem.

Exactly, 100% concur. And double points for citing the Alinsky prescription...

Corporate power plus government power = Fascism
