I blame it on Augustus, the Roman Emperor, who invented the bureaucracy.miriam sawyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06796668928044011101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9270189.post-8689295354257664452011-05-11T15:43:55.857-04:002011-05-11T15:43:55.857-04:00We had the same issue with childbirth.
My eldest ...We had the same issue with childbirth.<br /><br />My eldest cost my insurance over $12,000 to deliver at a hospital (induced, no c-section, no complications), not including pre-delivery doctor's appointments and tests. My second child was $2700 all-inclusive as a home birth.<br /><br />Granted, people are willing to pay for painkillers. But THAT much more?<br /><br />I love your example, btw. It's perfect.airforcewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02533056105139492032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9270189.post-8475966000801161852011-05-11T07:56:52.072-04:002011-05-11T07:56:52.072-04:00You don't want the government to pay Mr. Tran....You don't want the government to pay Mr. Tran.<br />If they do, Mr. Tran will have to go for professional healthcare training, licensing and yearly fee - to the government.
