This newsletter article perfectly matches my thoughts posted to several online forums when the health care reforms were passed.
The only real way to reduce the total cost of health care is for the overall population to become healthier. Artificially trying to drive down costs while adding another layer of them will not accomplish anything. A healthier population will require less medical care. So simple even a caveman can figure it out!
To me, the real challenge is getting the populace to take their health seriously and to realize that the vast majority of health problems are mostly self inflicted….and to do something about it. We need to stop pointing to the unlucky outliers that contract horrible illnesses due to none of their own doing. Those people are on the short end of the bell curve, as are the three pack a day smokers that live to be 95 years old and are never sick.
Personal responsibility. What a concept.
There are other ways of reducing the cost of health care, but a healthier, better educated public would be a major factor.
I’ll refrain from getting into economics and politics…for now. I do reserve the right to get political in the future!
I agree with the newsletter as well. Nothing beats eating and working out for performance, along with not engaging in destructive behavior, for staying out of the doctors office and the hospital.
Fair dues. I sense a debate coming!!!
Yeah…most likely!
We love a healthy debate!!
Hi sunshine, can you forward this article to me so I can read the whole thing? Is that against the rules?? Some of the words are cut short and you know how slow I am…..
