    REL The current US debate.... yes, there's alot of hysteria, and very little rational debate. The amount of total misinformation is astounding, it's as if fact checking no longer matters to some people. Why people who don't check any facts are actually taken seriously is rather amazing to me.

    I have lived in UK, I had great care there for a nasty sinus infection and an injury, and I had good care at insane prices and insurance randomness in USA, as well as good care with invisible insurance payments, so I had no idea what it cost....

    What does surprise me is how little anyone is willing to try to decide if a treatment at X cost is worth Y benefit.... yes, I know is sounds like rationing, but if you spend according to squeeky wheels, it's still rationed, but it just means that a different group of people are rationed out of the care.... If it's not rationed in any way, we're looking at infinite cost pretty soon....
