  1. It would. In the US we do have higher rates of obesity and type II diabetes. That does increase the demand and thus the price.

  6. This is due to lack of a free market system in healthcare. Asking for more government will just make the problem worse.

  7. Very few will say we have the best in the world. When you break it down the US is on par with other nations as other nations have many problems as well. This problem is due to lack of a free market.

  11. Three reasons 1. Our massive R&D 2. The fact that we cover people in ER who can't pay, so someone has to. The pay for those high drugs subsidize our advance care which is of high quality. 3. Lack of a free market

  12. Brash 1. This is a problem of lack of a free market. With a free market there will be an incentive to create life saving drugs 2. Define "reasonably priced" 3. No. A free market will mean lower prices and better quality. Also, define "unreasonable".

  13. You can't get money from dead people. Also, based on your point, why do car manufacturers create cars that last longer? it would benefit them to create cars that break down all the time requiring people to buy new ones.

  14. Brash, A reason why an IV cost so much is to subsidize the cost of people receiving care but can't pay. A free market means small ones can compete. Government regulations is what harm small companies.

  15. Brash, regulations kills small businesses.

  16. Brash, small businesses can't afford regulations thus it harms them. Small businesses get bought out when they fail. Regulations against that will harm them. Saying regulations create jobs is a bad argument. Outlawing the tractor will create many jobs in farming but will lower food production. Jobs are not important if they don't create wealth and waste valuable resources. Instead of enforcing frivolous regulations the people can be working elsewhere.

  17. Kevin, most drug creation is from the private sector.
