We aren't electing representatives of the people. We're electing representatives of the special interests. Thus, there's a transfer from the wallets of the people to the wallets of the special interests.
Bill asks why did the governments of France and America let inflation run wild and heath care to become unobtainable? The reason is not difficult, it's the gold stupid. When the currency was tied to gold the spending by congress was rigidly constrainted. If costs could not be reconciled to gold stores, as represented by dollars, the spending did not occur and without the spending, by definition, there was no inflation. After the gold standard was severed and the fools in congress understood they could spend with impunity inflation was baked into the proverbial cake. And each successful congress understood more and more the nature of free fiat spending until it became institutionalize and costs and spending became an absolute After thought. To be sure unstan
Just returned from Paris ourselves and we saw pretty much the same. One protest (peaceful) outside the Sorbonne, under gray drizzly skies. Lots of open tables at the eateries and the staff were glad to have some fellow pseudo-French Louisianians paying in cash (euro's). Great visit.
Unloading the cost of health insurance for the aging and disabled on the taxpayer was the
greatest maneuver the insurance companies with the politicians have perpetuated on the American public. After sixty-five when most people start developing serious medical problems the insurance companies have unloaded the vast majority of their obligations. Then you have Medicare D covering drugs, Medical for the poor and Obamacare. The working middle class has been left to pay a huge unfair and disproportionate medical financial burden.

There's a myriad of reasons why healthcare is so expensive.
But If there were more doctors and nurses, healthcare would be less.
Why do we not concentrate on that which would solve the problem?
How about "discounting the price of education".
If you're major is in healthcare.
Instead of trying to supplement it on the other side??

War and tariffs are ripe for $leakage$...so why would politicians ever, in their wildest dreams, want to stop such nonsense?
