Cyphire, point taken, two different issues. I stand somewhat
corrected (not going to capitulate completely or immediately, I want/need more info). Still, I appreciate both the information and perspective.

True, Walker did explicitly mention the prescription benefit as a primary culprit.

As it all comes down to cost, isn’t that the issue (main issue) with our current system? After fraud (maybe before) what would be the next greatest expense? I’ll postulate lawsuits, if I’m wrong correct me. The problem with emergency rooms (wait, expense ?)I can see where the expense might be controlled but the wait is more of a supply issue isn’t it?

I agree it’s ludicrous that the drugs we develop here are cheaper in other countries, so we subsidize their prescription costs at the expense of our citizenry’s ability to obtain the same.

I appreciate the insight, you’ve given me something more to think about (gee, thanks) and a possible opportunity to only be mumbling out of my ass instead of talking from it
(at least on this topic).
