Nah, we just need to regulate prices, and disband insurance entirely.

Trump forced all hospitals to be transparent about their prices, there’s no reason on this planet that the shit they’re peddling should cost the amount it does, and if the overhead is on the hospital then we need to regulate further up the ladder. The pharmaceutical companies and suppliers who are basically extorting everyone.

Over regulation is a bad thing, but some regulation, especially with an industry as corrupt as American healthcare is good.
