Okay Roman you have me on a roll and I am organizing my thoughts by writing this. Now my views are not liberal or conservative on this issue but as you can see a mix of both. Tax incentives...conservative but getting in peoples life and saying they have to have insurance! Absolutely..because by law we have tio treat them and if they do not have insurance then we all apy more!

Okay my next attack is on the pharmaceutical industry... for a short time I even worked for one of the biggest in the business Glaxo/Smith/Kline at research triangle park in in N.C.

Pharmaceutical companies will convince you that 237 dollar antibiotic was necessary due to research. Most of the revenue goes for fat salaries, bribing physicians with trips, parties , etc..yes I confess I have taken a few.

If you have a hospitial bill around read the cost of your drugs...astronomical There is not much of a mark up from the hospital. America is being held hostage by the pharmaceutical industry. I will write more on this tomorrow. This is a major part of healhcare costs. Hey I am tough on republicans for falling to lobbyists and not negotiating drug benefits for medicare.

Oh one other comment....IMHO some of the costly drugs consumers take are unnecessary.
