If Nationalized Health Care was so Grand, why don't those Countries who do have it- like it???? Would you like mediocre doctors who make mediocre pay giving you mediocre medicine and surgery??? If it's Government Funded you can bank on it being skimpy on Supplies and Services.

If you create more local Clinics to relieve the Hospital's burden overload of Non- Emergencies and Emergencies that are easily Treated by Medical Intern Staff who are overseen by a Rotating Staff of Seasoned- Veteran Doctors and Licensed Nurses (who recieve tax incentives instead of paychecks) you'd get a free Clinical Medical Staff. That free's up funding for a permanent, meager Administrative Staff and Overhead Expenses, like Supplies and Medicines. It could then charge "little to no charge."

And the burden it would take off of Emergency Rooms is immeasurable. That alone would drive down Hospital Costs and Prices, as well as, leave them free to attend to the real pressing emergencies and patients with serious conditions. It would ease the burdens on an overbooked and exhausted Staff. And the Lower Costs and Prices would stimulate Insurance Rates to go down as more Hospitals would begin to actually have to solicit and compete for your business.

The same works for VA Clinics to ease the burdens on VA Hospitals.

Apply Real Solutions to the Cause of a Problem, Don't Keep Throwing $$$ Money $$$ at the Symptoms.

Why stop there, Just read Kevin Trudeau's works for Great Ideas on how to cut Prescription Medicine Costs and your well on your way to a Better HealthCare System.

That and allow for Foreign and Internet Drug Sales to spur and maintain Competive Prices- That's Capitalism.

You could also clean up the FDA and their "Only Western Medicine Can Say What A Cure Is And A Cure Isn't Anything That Isn't Synthetically Manufactured" attitude, and, quit funding these "Cures For Things We'll Never Cure As Long As There's Profit To Be Had In Not Curing Diseases" Businesses, particularly if they claim to be Not For Profit, that's how you begin to better our Healthcare System.

And maybe make the FDA, FTC, and the other ABC Agencies not only do their jobs unbiasedly, but, start going after the "Big Guys" for the same things they come after us "little guys" for.
