How to Cut the Cost of Health Care by 10%

OK, enough complaining. It's time for action. Here is a surefire way to cut health care costs by 10% immediately. This is an easy one – why hasn’t anyone thought of this before? All we need to do is to stop paying those overpriced doctors. Let’s decree that, from this point forward, all doctors will work for free!

Oh, we may get some resistance from the medical profession, but the heck with them. We can use our military to hold these over-priced prima donnas at gunpoint and force them to provide their services gratis.

It seems to me that we could implement this plan nationwide within 30 days time, and start realizing that 10% savings right away.

Oh, there may be some repercussions down the road. It might be tough to get new doctors to dedicate 8+ years of their lives and invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in higher education, but we can deal with that when the time comes. After all, the current healthcare crisis is all about short-sightedness.

By implementing this plan, and saving 10% on our healthcare costs, we can stave off healthcare inflation for at least 2 years. Unfortunately, at two years from now, we will be right back where we are right now.

I bet you thought that this drastic plan would have saved a lot more money then 10%. Good for you! That is exactly the way you are supposed to think! You know that the greedy doctors are to blame for the current healthcare crisis! You don’t know WHY you know that – you just do! It just kind of makes sense.

Of course, if we want real, significant change in controlling the cost of healthcare, without tremendous negative effects in the near future, we will have to start looking elsewhere for solutions. But that sounds like hard work. Blaming the greedy doctors for the problem is easy, so why don’t we all just ride that train together for a while.

All Aboard!
