Healthcare has many different aspects, but fundamentally all people need support for securing their health and well being. The government has nothing to do with your health, that's your own responsibility. being informed of the true facts of potential illness is on your family and you. So much of healthcare is conflated with insurance and costs, policy should develop firm guidelines and regulation for the industry: BUT they should not be institutionalizing insurance and healthcare programs that squash the freedom the free market gives us when choosing our healthcare plans.

The Killing Fields of Socialized Healthcare

by Charles Katebi The Department of Veterans Affairs is the perfect example of socialized healthcare.

by Charles Katebi When we walk into a hospital, we have access to a cornucopia of different tests, procedures, and specialists. What we will hardly ever see is how much all of this costs. When insurers pay most of the bill, patients have no incentive to find the best deal, and hospitals are more than happy to keep their cost hidden. Now a revolutio...
