Comments on: Working the Land, Buried by Medical Costs

Let’s be civil. The Flathead Beacon encourages vigorous discussion and lively debate, but we will delete comments that attack other readers, make accusations we can’t verify, stray too far off topic, criticize local businesses (call them if you have a problem), convict someone of a crime, use profanity or are simply judged to be in bad taste. We don’t always have someone moderating comments, so we ask for your help: If you see a comment that violates these ground rules, or you simply deem it offensive, please e-mail editor [at] flatheadbeacon.com. The views expressed in the comments section do not reflect those of the Beacon.

Rising prices of healthcare costs are due to over regulation of the healthcare market and the gross over abundance of taxpayer subsidized Medicaid and Medicare. More on this later…

Hang tough there all you Montanans.  All that over regulation will be taken care of when John McCain is elected.  Just recently he wrote, “Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation. Consumer-friendly insurance policies will be more available and affordable when there is greater competition among insurers on a level playing field.“

That’s right: You’ll have a health insurance system to help you out Just like our banking system.
