re: #1351 kansas

Four things right now:

1. Start with tort reform. You dream up some bullshit lawsuit and go to some hack lawyer, you pay. No contingencies or percentages. Hourly rate only could be recovered if you win.

2. Make it illegal to charge a cash patient 10 grand for what an insurance company negotiates down to 2 grand. Everybody pays the same.

3. Develop a plan to assist poor people with medical care. It could be run by the States and could be called something like “Medicaid”. Oh wait.

4. Unless you are a citizen, you are not entitled to health care.

Well I think #2 is problematic. Some of those “negotiated” fees are bogus and not representative of real costs.
