Other causes too

Hey Rocky, I'm picking on you cause I know you are about my age. so here goes. Remember when doctors had 1 nurse in their office..or even none.? You paid the doctor 5-10 bucks for an office visit..even less but I don't want to tell my age. Heck I went to a doctor in 1972 trying to finagle a day off work(shame on me) and the office visit was 3 bucks...and he gave me a couple of pills. (another story)
Forward to present day. With so much government red tape they have to have 3 bookkeepers and a host of other people to help keep things straight. And really most is caused by government and insurance company requirements. You are right. insurance for the big stuff. reduce prices and red tape and pay for the small stuff out of pocket. Boy a really novel idea. Less government equals less cost!! Who woulda/coulda thunk it??!!
