For starters you might wonder why that medication costs 100,000 grand a year.

Under Obama's plan I would probably be visiting his panel of doctors (death panel) and thrown aside.

If they don't exist how can they cast you aside?

Yes we have public option, there is also free medical that the hospitals dole out to the less fortunate. They lose millions in providing this service.

Yes, the root of the problem is the Hippocratic oath!

The cost does not matter.

In a poor country if some one is taking that same med they are more then likely getting it free, if at all.

I will agree with you that some changes can be made in the health system as far as cost but, not through a government plan. Mass Health is a good exsample of government taking control.
