[QUOTE="The Question, post: 1178464, member: 1100"] What you're describing is corporatism. Healthcare prices are in orbit because the health insurance racket means that no matter how insane the price they demand, they'll get it -- so there's no incentive for them to keep prices sane. Same with college tuitions thanks to the student loan racket. They get whatever absurd figure they ask for thanks to the fact that taxpayers are footing the bill. Lay that at the feet of government at various levels. Get guaranteed payouts out of the picture and watch how fast healthcare and tuition come down ([I]IF[/I] all their screaming doesn't reverse such a move, of course. See: Anti-DOGE screech fests. Bureaucrats and their corporate pals are getting fat off the tax cattle, and [I]god help[/I] anybody who tries to put a stop to it.) [/QUOTE]
