Do you think there will ever actually be "Affordable Healthcare"?

Yes. Once the deadbeat insurance company middle-men are cut out of the system. They add nothing of value and take a big fat cut off the top. No other country tolerates their sorry existence.

I have had affordable healthcare my entire life. It came with my job. Try that. In other words, get a job.

As long as people use health insurgence to pay for health care, the cost/price must rise, that's the only way that model works. Has nothing at all to do with Obama, Trump, or any Congress. Health insurance can only work if the amount of premiums exceed the amount of treatment paid for, plus the margin of profit/overhead of the insurance issuer

I can afford it, why can't you?

Not if capitalism drives up health prices. An almost perfect system is the system they have in new Zealand

Greed runs the USA. There is no incentive for politicians to create Affordable Healthcare. Tax breaks for the richest people in the country creates reelection donations and more lobby money.

We had it before government stuck it's nose into it.

The problem is everyone wants all the new stuff. That costs money. Research costs money. You just have to decide what level you want to afford.

Remember that even if the rich get better care, they are going to drive the research and you will benefit from that in the long run. Call it unfair and maybe that's true. But you are still better off that way than you will be if we make it the low cost level for everyone because that's what we can actually afford.
