You mean like the NHS? The organisation that looks after the health of my nation. Brainwashed Americans screech 'we don't want us no socialised medicine.'

If these sociopathic entities want to operate in America, benefiting from America's many good aspects, they should be forced to comply with alot of things. Thats called morals. Unfortunately they are largely free to do what they want.
Then don't buy health insurance since you think it's a scam.

Not sure why it's difficult.

People with morals don't put a gun on other people's heads and force them to pay, wage or health care!

The hospital and pharma industry is just as much of a scam as the insurance industry! Corruption and price gouging is rampant. And if you dont have insurance, you are screwed unless you're a millionaire. A lone ranger being up against these massive forces will lose 99% of the time. And unlike most other industries, you pay with your life.

You dont seem to be able to argue coherently. No formal conspiracy is necessary when there are converging interests. These are profit seeking entities. They dont care about human life and suffering. Its all about profits. They benefit by denying people health care. Its a racket where all the elements of the health care "industry" is in on it.

Even China increases the minimum wage every year. And it is a third world dictatorship. We can do better than this.

The business owners will pass the cost to the consumer, me. Things will get more expensive for me. In turn I will raise rents on my properties, because I don't want make less money. The purpose of a business is to make money.
