A Global Overview
What would you do with $429 million? It’s a lot of money, and it also happens to be the amount that municipal government in New York City spends on health care for the 8.2 million people who live there every year. Not bad is it? Especially when you compare it to Bénin, which for the same amount of people spends only $86 million.
There are many questions to ask when looking at the health care system, what is fair, what isn’t, is it really a basic human right? They are the questions that governments have be struggling with for a very long time, after all how do you please everybody. These are the topics that interest us and we would like to discuss in this new site. All I can really say is that if $429 million dollars cannot cover the health care of 8.2 million people, then they do not need to look at a new system with more money, they need to look at a old system with better managed money!
