Taxing districts should not be subsidizing highly profitable businesses. Hospitals need to tighten their belts, not us. Insurance is extremely expensive and why in the world should we pay taxes for more?

I agree 100% with your first sentence Dan. But I don't think you will find any hospital administrator, insurance company or politician who does not think there is a crying need for improvements and alternative thinking in our health care delivery system. I see the problem with local hospitals as promoting an old funding model that no longer fits the income stream. Citizens must take the initiative to be informed consumers, and that is what I hoped to foster in my MMHD series.
