I’m considering going to see “Money Driven Medicine.” The film documentary’s web site claims, “The U.S. Is the only industrialized nation that has chosen to turn medicine into a largely unregulated, for-profit business.” It would be interesting to learn how lack of regulation has eliminated competition, and thus resulted in skyrocketing prices. The film will be screened at the Unitarian Universalist Church at 500 Montreat Road, Black Mountain, at 7:00pm this Thursday. A discussion, likely about how government is the only cure for the problems it created in the healthcare industry, will follow.
