Single payer healthcare
I was browsing reddit today and stumbled across a thread
https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/3zq3gr/mos…
I was reading the comments and I am amazed at how many people don't understand how basic economics works. Now before you scream in outrage that reddit is full of young dumbass kids that don't know shit about anything. I know that, the thing is that you would think that at least by sheer dumb luck that some of these kids would have picked up at least some of the basics of how economics work from their schooling. The biggest thing that stood out is that people seem to think that if we go to a single payer health care system that suddenly and magically everything will be free.
Makes me wonder if in two generations if there will be anyone left on the earth that is smart enough to use any of the things we have created.
Can someone explain what Americans mean when they refer to "single-payer healthcare"?
The reason I'm confused is because Americans always use other countries (such as Australia) as examples for the success of single-payer healthcare. This confuses me since, although we have single-payer healthcare, everyone STILL pays cash out-of-pocket for medical consultations.
There seems to be this widespread misconception amongst Americans that single-payer healthcare means that everything is free? Can someone perhaps clarify?
You aren't mistaken. Most Americans are idiots.
