re: The insanity of the socialization of our medical care

It is ridiculous how many healthy people come in to be seen weekly and monthly for such minor things such as paper cuts, a cold that started two hours ago, minor aches and pains, runny nose, etc. They come in to socialize with others in the lobby. They will visit the ER and then turn right around and come as a walk in to the doctor on the same day. The waste of money and time is incredible. Unless you work in the healthcare industry, you just cannot be aware how abusive and wasteful it has become.
