People the net has been on for like 20 year's, I will make this short and sweet. They figured out a long time ago that if they could counterfeit the money and not be audited they could rule the world.

With free and open markets we could bring the price down to a fraction of what it is now and provide much better care to the masses. What you see on a political, financial front taking place in the world are one in the same. The money printer has seized control of most of the world and they are doing a Marxist hit job on free and open market's around the world mainly America because so much has been invented here.

The medical industry in the US started to be monopolized in the 1920's by guess who? the people running the counterfeiting operation that's who, you know the 5th plank in the communist manifesto that is used to run a capitalist society so they tell us. Do not be fooled there are no more free and open market's in the US any longer, just watch the movie cancer is serious business by DR. Brynzinski and see what the money printer has done to this guy.

Ladislav laid that out perfectly.

The FDA is owned by the medical industry and big pharmacy. There are some cures for cancer like high dose IV drips of Vitamin C. It kills cancerous and abnormal cells but passes over normal healthy ones....wow......it's amazing that something so natural can do something like that.

But what does a vitamin C IV drip cost? Almost nothing compared to 3 million dollar poisonous chemo radiation therapy machines.... Doctors that provide stuff like alternative cures got chased out the US and now do this in central and south america. Many Americans with money, are going overseas to get healthcare. Hell the FDA wont approve a better breast cancer treatment from the UK because they would have to buy their expensive equipment!!

To answer your initial question Winston, yes. It's greed. When in doubt follow the money.....

Good question. In Mexico, I can afford to get good care and pay cash. America is insanely expensive and Obamacare is just going to make it worse.

Yep. I know a guy who had cancer and his daughter had it too. He was 800,000+ in debt. Who can pay back something like that?

...under Obamacare:


SEC. 2711 [42 U.S.C. 300gg–11]. NO LIFETIME OR ANNUAL LIMITS. [Replaced by section 10101(a)] ‘‘(a) PROHIBITION.—

‘‘(1) IN GENERAL.—A group health plan and a health insurance issuer offering group or individual health insurance coverage may not establish—

‘‘(A) lifetime limits on the dollar value of benefits for any participant or beneficiary; or

‘‘(B) except as provided in paragraph (2), annual limits on the dollar value of benefits for any participant or beneficiary.
‘‘(2) ANNUAL LIMITS PRIOR TO 2014.—With respect to plan years beginning prior to January 1, 2014, a group health plan and a health insurance issuer offering group or individual health insurance coverage may only establish a restricted annual limit on the dollar value of benefits for any participant or beneficiary with respect to the scope of benefits that are essential health benefits under section 1302(b) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as determined by the Secretary. In defining the term ‘restricted annual limit’ for purposes of the preceding sentence, the Secretary shall ensure that access to needed services is made available with a minimal impact on premiums.

‘‘(b) PER BENEFICIARY LIMITS.—Subsection (a) shall not be construed to prevent a group health plan or health insurance coverage from placing annual or lifetime per beneficiary limits on specific covered benefits that are not essential health benefits under section 1302(b) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, to the extent that such limits are otherwise permitted under Federal or State law.

Bill Clinton stated that the key to Obama Care's success was weather the young signed up for it which is a typical Q that it is just another Ponzi scheme being applied by the creditors.

You see they want the young to prop it up with their purchasing tickets they earn ( money ) because they will not need it being in their youth so they can take all the credits supplied by the younger generation and shower them on the older generations while pocketing alot of it in the process.

That is all socialism is and we are waiting for everybody to realize communism socialism is a group of people who want to just counterfeit money practice usury and shove all us around while they lay claim to all the world and it's resources in the name of building the communal society.

because unlike many other countries where health care is seen as an investment for the future of the country or as something that will benefit the quality of living of society overall.... healthcare in america is seen as a profitable business and a way to make tons of money off of the american people.

Pulmicort, a steroid inhaler, generally retails for over $175 in the United States, while pharmacists in Britain buy the identical product for about $20 and dispense it free of charge to asthma patients.
