...how do We even get there, not to mention the dismantling of programs every time a new "regime" is "elected? I'm not asking as if it cannot be done, I'm all for whats "fair & equitable" for all, but with more & more hospitals, clinics & the rest of the industry being bought out by hedge funds, and with congress bought and paid for, just how the hell do We get there? We will have to do the heavy lifting, as always, but where, exactly, is the starting point? Anyone?
