   Or better yet, eliminate the profit motive. Get rid of advertising and marketing for drug companies and completely eliminate medical insurance companies, their PR and marketing departments, and all the administrators involved. Socialize drug companies and divert research toward cures, not chemical treatments. And last, but not least, allow doctors to make decisions based on what is best for the patient, not what the patient can afford or what the insurance company will allow.

   As for the poor. Driving down the price of health care is the first step in getting the poor access to the health system. Nothing should be free. Giving people things makes them lazy and they begin to expect hand outs. The 15-20 million immigrants you seem to be in favor of are a part of the problem. Already receiving treatment on a whim due to current rules they are taxing the system and help drive prices up.

   1. We can have our say by spending OUR money at the payment counter as opposed to them deciding who OUR money should go to.

   2. In the past century psychology gained great credibility and once discovered has been used to manipulate the public. With the emergence of the TV it gave the few with a very clear agenda the chance to push the masses in the direction they want to go. The strong preying on the weak if you will. The have the knowledge and are abusing it.
