If we compare ourselves to other countries, we are one sad community. What are spending on and why? I agree with Anand in the ridiculous competing prices amongst health care providers, but then again, we are spending in selfish ways.
Let me rephrase that… health care is catering to the rich, so whatever the rich can afford will be the competing price amongst those providers. Wafa’s cartoon is so amusing, so funny, and, unfortunately, so true. This country is about providing for the rich because it is given that they can afford it. Technology can be a contributing factor in this rise, but I don’t think it may be a determining factor. This spending will have a large impact on poor communities (duh!) as prices will rise and they will continue to be unable to access quality health care. “There’s no need in getting their hopes up.” Consequently, this sad situation is in a much needed health care reform system. Lets consider universal health care and re-evaluate our communities and meeting the quality of life for all and not just the rich.
