Actually the mistake we made as a people was yelling about government health subsidies back in the 70's. Back then most hospitals were run by doctors. If they ran in the red the government made up the difference at the end of the year. Health cost were manageable. Then to get away from subsidies they allowed the HMO's, for profit to come into existence. Health care cost have been climbing like mad ever sense.

They just finished up one 3 story addition that included buying out several homes and paying to have another of them moved.
