Repealing Obamacare and Restoring a Free Market in Healthcare
Loading...
Uploaded by CFPEcon101 on Jul 12, 2010
Government programs and intervention were making a mess of the healthcare system, even before Obamacare was enacted. Repealing Obamacare is a good idea and will prevent a bad situation from becoming worse. This CF&P Foundation video explains, however, that repeal is just the first step if we want to genuinely restore a free market and create an efficient and cost-effective healthcare system. www.freedomandprosperity.org

So this lady, who is a member of the European independent institute which is a think tank with maybe 2 members wants you to spend more money out of pocket so you will care where it goes. Sounds like health care for the rich. I guess "let the poor die" doesn't look good on her board.

@Spjungen The old lies about medical tourism...
According to Your Surgery Abroad, 60% of Americans would consider travelling abroad to escape the cost of healthcare in the US. A biased survey? Almost certainly.
But according to Deloitte, over 5% of Americans actually will travel abroad for healthcare.
The corresponding figure for the UK is 0.1%, the VAST majority of which are for non-NHS treatments including dentistry, cosmetic surgery and fertility treatment.

@BasilFawlty4444 Yeh, NHS. NHS is also arguably the LEAST efficient and WORST healthcare system in the developed world. Little surprise, people go on medical vacations, AWAY from britain, to go to countries where the market is more competitive.
Your government can't take care of its own people, and they have to pull their own fucking teeth out, or walk around with terrible dental.
There's your free healthcare.
Idiot.

@BasilFawlty4444 They only thing it's wrong because they're self-entitled pricks who've never worked in their life for what they have. They want the government to take care of them. To that it needs to tax. Then they wonder why there are no jobs. It really is entertaining the level of economic illiteracy people exhibit.
They're all socially liberal oh yeah, human rights, freedom, whatever, but when it comes to economics, they don't know JACKSHIT.

@Spjungen wrong.
The free market is the wrong direction for healthcare, even the Conservatives in the UK reject it despite their recent reforms.
Everybody hates these reforms anyway. And, doubtless, as always the next Labour government will come in and put it back again.
Don't delude yourself. Free market healthcare is bad. NHS over free market any day of the week.

It's so good to see that Europe is learning from its mistakes and going free market...or at least that there's a voice for it there. They really need it right now, and might just become the new US in terms of a free market business environment, because America is going in the exact opposite direction.

I LOVE these videos!
Ladies, teach and enlighten the lads, PLEASE. Peter Schiff and the free market pioneers don't seem to convince people, but perhaps you can! =P
Thumbs way up!

I'm pretty libertarian. I applaud the CFPE for putting informative videos out there. But...uh...these video hosts are creepy.

Medicare and Medicaide should not be reformed THEY SHOULD DISAPPEAR. All wealth redistribution of wealth is theft and is never justified.

Government Releases New Numbers on Obamacare Showing Costs Will Skyrocketby jackohoft18,878 views
Having family in Holland, I can verify the inefficiency of government run healthcare!
I have a blood test done in the US...and by the time I walk from the lab to the doctors office, the results are waiting for me.
My aunt waits....and waits...for permission to have a blood test done. Then she waits...and waits to have it done. And then she waits some more: sometimes 3 weeks before she receives the results.
So wait for it...with Obamacare you'll need a lot of patience!

If states removed a lot of the costly and unneeded mandates (drug rehab, mental health parity, chirporpracter, invitro fertilization, etc), allowed EVERYONE to purchase across state lines and everyone got "catastrophic insurance" (your policy says nothing until you pay $2000 out-of-pocket) you would have low premiums for the young, they could save a lot of money on premiums and it would assist them in the event of a serious health event.
