    Yeah that’s not what it’s about at all. Hospitals need funding. Hospitals do not need a profit motive. Remove the profit motive and socialize the costs of healthcare. Just like every civilized country does it.

      You say I’m wrong and then you go on to reiterate my exact point. Hospitals require funding and they are funded in every developed nation.

        you’re arguing for profit to remain a focus within the healthcare industry. That’s anti-people, and why everyone is downvoting you. Everyone knows a hospital requires funding, we just want our tax dollars to pay it.

          You’re putting words in my mouth. I never said that. I said anything needs money to run, even a nationalized system or a single payer system.
