  Ever consider 
  the fact that lack of tort reform has caused the overhead costs of 
  doctors and hospitals to be exhorbitant ? On top of that, the legal 
  system has made extortion LEGAL by forcing doctor's to settle claims they are 
  not really responsible for.
  My wife has 
  been in the business of settling healthcare claims for years.....I know 
  first-hand what is going on here.
  A frat brother 
  of mine, not the sharpest tool in the shed, is now a millionaire lawyer...all 
  he does is handle mal-med and those stupid personal injury cases that are so 
  bogus.

  So here's the 
  correct statement:
  "What's obvious 
  is that the LEGAL system in America, currently controlled by the GOVERNMENT, 
  has run amuck and has affected the healthcare provider mechanism 
  PROFOUNDLY"
  "The solution 
  is simple: Tort reform whereby frivolous lawsuits against good doctors result 
  in a significant penalty for the plaintiff if they are 
  dismissed"

    You might as well get your facts straight. First, the US spends 14% of 
    GDP on healthcare which is the highest percentage of any country in the 
    entire world. Second, in spite of spending the world's greatest percentage 
    of GDP on healthcare, 40% of our citizens have none, zero, zilch health 
    coverage. Third, 50% of that 14%, or roughly 7% of GDP, is spent on 
    healthcare administration, almost all of which goes to private insurance 
    companies and HMO's, not the government. The government run Veterans 
    Administration medical system is a disgrace to those who served our country. 
    The government run Medicare system is extremely efficient, consuming roughly 
    3% of premiums paid. 
     
    Those of us who can afford healthcare are well taken care of. The 
    40% who can't afford healthcare coverage, receive little care, and most 
    of that is delivered in public hospital emergency rooms at 
    taxpayer's expense. What's obvious is that the healthcare system, 
    currently in private hands, has run amuck.  I don't know what 
    the solution is.

      it's the governmentt regulations andinvolvement in our 
      medical system which has created a lot of the problemsvis a via rising 
      health costs and insurance issues.  And this doesn't evenaddress 
      corruption, fraud, waste, abuse, inefficiencies,and 
    incompetence.
