Well, we need a new solution because it already is coming out of our paychecks. There are some folks with a decent plan, but the bulk of America is going downhill fast. Admin costs in health care are over 30% when the average business has 5%. A good comparison was the Airline industry before it de-regulated. I'm convinced the solution is not national health care but consumer driven health care. As I've mentioned before the theory behind it is the same as a nose job: you find the best doctor for the price you want to pay. The doctors compete for your business and specialize at what they do. MinuteClinic ( http://www.minuteclinic.com/ ) is an example of company that's working in this space. In order to make this change over, however, the industry will need a massive overhaul and that would need to be led by Congress. And there are holes. What about people that can't make those decisions? Or those that don't have health savings accounts (HSAs)? The bottom line is that the future of Health Care (and retirement) should be personal savings accounts that are portable, tax free, and self-administered. The time to start, however, is now because the longer we wait the harder it will be to do. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:220220 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
