China's health care reforms and increased spending on health care fall short of what is needed.
12/30/2005
China's increased health care spending of $16 billion by the central government in each of the years 2009-2011 is clearly inadequate. Over 200 million are uninsured and the health care system jacks up the costs so much with expensive tests and pills that the poor tend to shun hospitals. The current plan puts off government financed health coverage for 90% of the population till 2020.

Pricing of healthcare services and pharmaceuticals as the biggest problem in funding healthcare in the U.S.
01/31/2008
The cost of most healthcare services are double or higher in the U.S. than in Canada, Germany, France and Japan. By not bringing prices in line with the price in other major developed countries, the U.S. is effectively defunding infrastructure, R&D, education and other important means of improving competitiveness say experts. The methods of setting price present in these countries are notably absent in the U.S. The Obama healthcare bill and before that the Bush Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit simply leave this problem unaddressed.

02/15/2011
There is little support for cutting the two programs polls show. This suggests that politicians who fight for cuts in the popular programs risk being punished in the next elections. Voter awareness about the problems the large budget deficits pose for the U.S. and what action needs to be taken is growing, but only growing slowly.

Doctor Accused of Big Medicare Scam

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
