Since you're a genius economist who's got this all figured out, who's going to pay for it?

well we need a top down approach. Regulate and standardize costs. make a resolution to make hospitals ‘public’ and liquidate/downsize the Board of directors, put them on a government pay scale (GS12+). those that opt out of the program can keep their board and remain private hospitals with government subsidies to manage.

Completely dissolve all insurance companies; or just circumvent them entirely, as they are a useless middleman, literally bloat, that contribute nothing to ‘healthcare’.

and finally the answer to your question, my patriotic friend, you and i would cover the costs with our taxes that we pay ( ok you can have your melt down now ); but keep in mind: no more monthly premiums, no more minimum deductibles to ‘buy in to your plan’ just to use what you are already paying for. medicaid/medicare and associated taxes would be rolled into those costs (at a reduced amount because: lower overall threshold, more people paying into the system) ... this COULD possibly result in a reduction of overall expenses... also your car insurance rates would drop, because they would no longer be liable to cover medical bills... thank you and every american that contributes the funding of our healthcare system.
