S3 E29: Free Healthcare is NOT the Problem. It's Not the Solution Either
Manage episode 456398458 series 3405437
At least eight different categories of people receive some or all of their healthcare free, at taxpayers expense. Politicians call our system broken, while they ask for even more free programs. Others protest that free healthcare is too expensive.
Critics of the US cite the systems in other countries as evidence that we should change. But many other countries, like France have – not a single-payer system – but a combination of government and private insurance. The system in France is more comprehensive, but that is not the reason they are more successful.
The big difference between France and the US is not the healthcare system; it’s the tax system. It’s not who draws out. It’s who pays in.
Commentary on trending issues brought to you with a moderate perspective.
