Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Dr. Medlin: re: " Overall a pretty good article, but again, wheres the BEEF? Where are the answers on how to lower the health insurance costs other than allowing the market to eventually bring it back down? " I too have disagreement with various points in this article. It was presented simply as another view with some interesting concepts not generally seen in the arena of 'solving the health insurance crisis'... The point I take from his tome is that any monopolistic controls yet demonstrated have resulted in satisfaction of only the interest of whichever cohort has the power...and we have all seen failures in both government and the private insurance cabals..... a classic example of the Application of the " Golden Rule " ....ie, he who has the Gold, makes the Rules " ..... The conflict will continue between those who believe private efforts to fund private benefits for those who 'earn' admission by paying for it themselves, versus those who believe 'we are all one' and MY sweat of should somehow benefit my lazy-ass brother-in-law who has never worked a day in his life, and there should be a federal bureaucrat to insure all the rules are being followed...or those who believe the greater spirit of Mankind by rights SHOULD include all of us regardless of circumstance.... I spent one career before chiropractic college trying to find an answer to such a question. It remains unanswered. I have yet to see any 'final answer' on this complex issue, as where ever the beef appears to satisfy one interest group, the sacred bull of another is gored.... Happy New Year.... J.
