It's not fear, it's money. All of those unnecessary things are huge profit centers for certain people. Health care is middle-manned to death, and not just insurance. There are loads of other middle men at every step.
As it stands, people are afraid to completely deregulate healthcare.
Funny enough, even though imo it is the only way. I do think money would stop it from becoming a movement. When’s the last time you saw a leader stand up and say “let’s dissolve XXX three letter agency!”? You don’t see it. Wonder why?
Last one I recall was Trump. Media did a number on him, so much so we can’t even discuss him without worrying about being attacked. Isn’t that something?
The overhead of the insurance companies is insane!
Basically every first world country other than the US has better and cheaper healthcare, but they don't have any less regulation.
The countries that America is compared to and found wanting aren't running completely deregulated healthcare. What makes them different?
