Every comment in this thread is ideologically driven. It seems that if you don't want people commenting with political opinions, there shouldn't be political submissions. As far as substance goes, how is my comment less substantiv

Braum's just cut the size of their burgers and their shakes aren't as good anymore. I'm so disappointed in them.

The government of North Korea is one of the two puppet dictatorships established in the Korean peninsula after World War II. It was the will of the Korean people to establish a socialist democracy, not a Juche dictatorship, but in 1946 the

I'd be interested in recommendations for an article that isn't rooted in neoclassical thought.

That number includes specialists and lab techs. It doesn't include hospital care (i.e. nurses). You are just ignoring the profiteering done by the drug and insurance companies and the savings due to streamlining administration that a s

Physician pay (last I checked) only makes up about 20%, including the costs of them practicing. They see about half of it in the end. There is even more spent on administration, which makes up about 25% of spending. Compare that 25% to the

You have no idea if you think technology magically brings down prices. Tell that to the 100 million people living in/near poverty in the USA alone. The "efficiency" increases in recent years have more often than not been vari
