“Price is the culprit! Not population, demographics, or use and intensity.”-Hamilton Moses, Journal of the American Medical Association

The Journal of the American Medical Association just published the results of their study into why health care cost so much in the United States; it’s price fixing by the entire health industry, from your doctor to hospitals to legal drug pushers!

The JAMA study says high health care prices have absolutely nothing to do with consumer demand, because consumer demand is actually crashing!

The study also found that many hospitals never reveal to their patients, and not even to doctors, how much they are charging: “This is not a market. It is far from a market. Few prices are known. They are not well publicized.”-Hamilton Moses

As far as Obama Care goes, since the law forces almost everybody in the U.S. onto privately run insurance cost will only go up.  That’s because the JAMA study found that a major factor in high health care costs was the insurance industry itself.  The administrative costs of dealing with insurance companies is increasing at a rate of at least 6% per year.

“Our ideals and principles, as well as our national security……..That’s what makes America different. That’s what makes us exceptional.”-Barack Obama, 10 September 2013
