- adventured 13y agoThat's embarrassing. What does your glib, mostly obnoxious comment have to do with anything factual? You hate America so much you can't even give it credit for positive things that are factually accurate?
- jezfromfuture 13y agoSorry but america does not subsidise the health systems of the world , it just sad to see you argue so much when in all actuality your being fleeced tax payer wise & health insurance wise . Your health service doesn't really seem like its there to help most just the rich people.
- omd 13y agoI knew it was just a matter of time before American xenophobia came to HN.
- ofacup 13y agoi'm sorry, but i'm not embarrassed. please show me where your "mostly obnoxious comment" has anything to do with anyone. the usa does not subsidise world healthcare. get over yourself
- geebee 13y agoI believe that the thesis was that health care companies make heavy investments in R&D that are only profitable because of very high prices in the US, and that these innovations probably wouldn't be available at the lower cost in other other countries without this profit center. That's just a thesis. It's an interesting one, I'd be interested in reading some discussion of it, especially insightful comments backed with data.
