Has anyone yet figured out how healthcare legislation will cut current and future costs?

I've asked this question before. Despite having a lot of experts here I've never gotten a definitive answer.Has anyone yet figured out how healthcare legislation will cut current and future costs?No. It won't cut future costs and that's why you are getting no explanation as to how it will. They are talking about spending trillions and saying it will reduce the deficit. That's like me saying if I write a bunch of checks on my checking account my balance will be bigger afterwards. Government lies are becoming bolder and bolder as they assume Americans get stupider and stupider.



Now, if you are talking about reducing Federal deficits, that means more taxes paid by taxpayers. So if taxpayers pay more and more and more and more it is conceivable that the Federal deficit could drop, but the taxpayer will be taxed out of his skin. Imagine what an 80% tax rate would do to the average family and you have your answer.Has anyone yet figured out how healthcare legislation will cut current and future costs?
I have ran the numbers (I know I am a nerd, but I truly love numbers) and the only way I see it happening is to set up a points system by which people can be graded based on taxes, overall health, likely hood of recovery, ETC. Unfortunately the system places a higher value on those with more taxable income and thereby you odds of receiving life saving health care will be dependent on your ability to earn enough money to pay enough taxes to pay for your particular procedure. This is really the only way to make health care work. In fact this might be at the very root of our problem know. If everyone simply paid for their own medical services then the fees would be much lower to the individual. However allowing those who can not pay to receive health care has resulted in health care providers having to make up the difference by passing the cost along to those who can or do pay. In the end according to the numbers some people would simply have to be allowed to die.



This is the reason that these decisions are not made by mathematicians.Has anyone yet figured out how healthcare legislation will cut current and future costs?Mostly because preventive care is much cheaper than emergency care. And most people who are uninsured just wait for an emergency situation to go to the hospital. Also, more people paying into the system creates more distributed costs, making it cheaper for everyone.
