I wasn't solely talking about drug prices. You also want the government to control what doctors can be paid. Do you not see how that will limit innovation.


I want to explore changes in the way that doctors are reimbursed to create better systems. I don't think it will impact innovation to the level you are indicating.

disagree. You are wanting the means of production to be taken over by the government


No that isn't what I want - I want the gov't to have checks on the free market system in healthcare - just like anti-trust laws - which are a "socialist" practice but are necessary in certain cases to help protect our free market / capitalist system as a whole.

I am not a proponent of national / socialized healthcare and that isn't the HC plan that Yang supports.

Why do you think the government could better determine the value added to society by a doctor than the free market could? When has that ever worked well for anyone?

The best way to keep the price down is to allow for competition in the healthcare field. I don't really see the correlation to antitrust laws.
