re: Why can every other first world country have healthcare for all?

Because our government is corrupt? Just a guess.

When you deal with the kind of money the government deals with the answer isn't ever to actually cut spending. They want to increase spending whenever possible because it allows them to dip their fingers into the cookie jar. I would think this is obvious to everyone by now.

Further, there is the issue of "overpopulation" that complicates matters even father.

What would happen if they cured cancer tomorrow? Well, suddenly one of the leading causes of death is neutralized. How many people die of cancer each year? Those extra mouths to feed would start to add up quick.

Look, I get it, people are never going to believe the government suppresses technology. It's whatever. And to Apollyon's questions asking what these hypothetical technologies are, we could go through an entire list of them and it wouldn't make one bit of difference. This person works in the medical field. They're not going to acknowledge things that haven't been signed off on by the FDA. Simple as that.


So, this conversation is basically a gigantic waste of time. Besides which, I've stated numerous times anyways that despite me hoping we can see a better system, I freely acknowledge we can't have one with the way things are now.

I don't see any point in me participating here any longer. Y'all have a good night.
