GOP Reality Show

[Dartz]

As opposed to people who die because they're uninsured. Or lose their homes. Or go without basic preventative medicine.... Or pay anyway and get shafted on a loophole. Or have their insurer refuse to pay for the treatment needed in the hope of finding something 'cheaper'.

Part of the reason why there're more medical proceedures available in the US is because there're more people who will actually need them. 400 million[?] is a lot of people. And they get a lot of stuff done. As opposed to about 4.

Part of the reason people wait months on end is because they're so basic. It's not serious enough to hurry with If it's something important like cancer, it'll get dealt with pretty bloody quickly. Other waiting lists are a result of organs simply not being available for transplant. Or because regional population growth has outstripped investment and provisioning in the hospitals.

And because there are some failings in a public system, it gives a niche for Private hospitals to occupy, and for insurers to work.

But ultimately, there's only so much medicine to go around. Someone has to decide who doesn't get treated and who does.
