Bronze medalist Ari Ramsey has gotten a pap smear, dental check up, eye exam and new glasses—all for free. Her story highlights the pressing financial burden of accessing healthcare in the U.S.
Other countries have better care that costs less!!!
But you better believe that preserving healthcare access for the non-rich is a constant topic. It should be more a singular voting issue than it is, but that’s due to the same force driving opinions in its ultimate goal of forcing change back to a mercenary system.
And every “public-private”, “same procedures as public but you pay to skip the queue”, “public but newer processes are kept for private” system is just on their own journey down the colon to the same American end. There can be no consolidated public healthcare system that has a future in an environment where private performs anything that can ever be considered essential. Let medical tourism be the cash cow of the last country to give up mercenary healthcare, as their own doctors are stuck mopping the floors.
