So Tricare, one of the USAF providers pays more than CMS, , generally speaking. I was at a small community pharmacy today that has two employees, both pharmacists, both running the register, calling in refills, talking to insurance, stocking shelves, unloading trucks. They had a sign up saying they can no longer afford to fill Tricare prescriptions, because they won't pay enough for the two-owner employee team to cover the cost of medicine alone, not to mention bottles, caps, labels and ink. That's not counting store rent, utilities, and other costs.

America is largely de-industrialized, it doesn't "make" much, so instead it's dominated by Usury, ie financial Capital.
This is why I'd rather die then go to the doctor.
Why can't we have universal healthcare or a public option?
They literally don't even have a product.
Then don't buy it.
(I'm tired of the oversimplification that gets voted to the top of any social media)
