_AdjI_ 11/22/18 9:20:16 PM #14:	Zeus posted... ...what? That makes zero sense in addition to being patently false. I know for a fact that you've seen the numbers. The US government spends twice as much per capita on health care than the second-highest country (Canada, which is rife with its own inefficiencies), despite not having a formal health care system to show for it. There's every reason to believe that a socialized health care system would in fact save the US government money, given that every country in the world with one spends less on health care than the US does. But no, pharmaceutical and other medicine-as-industry lobbyists have fed the country a steady stream of individualist propaganda telling people that they have to work for the right to not randomly die, so the US keeps wasting money and lives.
