The entire health care system in this country is pretty screwed up..and I agree the system needs to change. That said there are some places that offer cheaper services, but that is not always good quality service.

Also though I kind of disagree with insurance companies being ripped off, seems like insurance much of the time rips people off. As for medicaid and medicare, I do kind of wonder if expanding it will help or if it will just make it less able to cover peoples medical expenses.

I personally like the idea of Universal Healthcare, though that could have its flaws to.
