Reply to comment by AttackOficcr in Feds file lawsuit against Arizona over border wall made of shipping containers by AudibleNod

I’m a single person Union company. I pay both the company portion and employee portion of my insurance. Not old enough for Medicare, not injured enough for Medicaid, but the company does pay into them. Hopefully I’ll live long enough to take advantage of that and there will still be something left to take advantage of.

That's fair. My point was just that the U.S. government does spend a sizeable amount on healthcare, drug development, and licensing/testing.

Problem is that U.S. healthcare patients get and see none of those subsidies in their bloated medical blls. Like $25 for a single tab of aspirin.
