How to Reduce Healthcare Costs by 80% Overnight (Without Spending $2 Trillion)

[REDDIT]

Dr. Mary Ruwart has a plan that would reduce healthcare costs by 80% overnight... without costing taxpayers $2 trillion. So why isn't anyone talking about this?

I'll be following up with Dr. Ruwart to get more detail on her proposal.

In the meantime, here are some sources who confirm what she's saying about regulations being at the root of high healthcare costs:

This is not a matter opinion,

This is not a matter opinion, as I was present for the first ascent of many of the problems Bob attempts to describe. Bob couldn't have climbed these problems because they were beyond his ability, being some of the hardest problems in the world. Here is a list of problems, off the top of my head, that are wrongly described, either by name, grade or area in Chaos Canyon alon==========Web Development degree | Online Industrial Engineering degree | online Masters degrees | Engineering degree | online associate degrees

This doesn't pass the sniff

This doesn't pass the sniff test. Cut 80% of our health care costs by cutting regulations on Big Pharma? Hmmmm.

Let's imagine that we could reduce regulation to zero. Merck and GSK wouldn't have to do any testing on any new drug, but they'd still have to operate their companies profitably, search for new compounds that have at least an internally derived sense of efficacy and low probability of killer side-effects (unless no regulations = no product liability lawsuits, either) and then get those drugs into the hands of physicians. So a SWAG might be 50% lower costs. But that's a 50% reduction on only one part of health care. You still need to pay doctors, do tests, run hospitals, feed patients, etc. etc. etc.

HEALTH CARE: ONE DOCTOR HOST

HEALTH CARE: ONE DOCTOR HOST STATED THAT THE HEALTH / PHARAMCEUTICAL INDUSTRY IS 1000 TIMES MORE CORRUPT THAN THE POLITICAL PROCESS COLLUSION. IT IS EASY TO SEE: GO TO ANY HOSPITAL, AFTER HOURS, AND TRY AND GET A PRICE FOR THE SERVICE TO BE RECEIVED, EVEN A BALL PARK FIGURE - GETTING A BREAK DOWN BEFORE THE SERVICE IS LIKE PULLING TEETH, BUT AFTERWARD IT IS EASIER, BUT THAT'S AFTER THE FINANCIAL DAMAGE TO YOUR WALLET HAS OCCURRED !

Change???????? What

Change???????? What Change?????

we got more oligarch / corporatist rule, and no justice for the average person in this god forsaken gulag we now live in.

health care?? that's what you get when the mortiician EMBALMS YOUR DEAD ASS, that's Amerikan Health Care in a nutshell!

BTW, got in a major argument

BTW, got in a major argument over govt healthcare at a 40th b-day last week - dinner party. The liberals are just so clueless about economics, and it just stuns me to hear people who have faith in the govt running anything. They have ZERO evidence to prove govt efficiency and success!

My wife was telling me to stop and calm down, but my blood was boiling b/c I feel so passionate about this stuff, and I was raising my voice and talking over the idiot. As far as I was concerned, I had a right to drown out his god awful ideas.

Love the video, esp since

Love the video, esp since it's an industry insider...and unreal that the regulation has grown to so totally dominate costs!!!!

Keep up the good work...I'm gonna put your link on my site..and keep checking yours out.
