Description[?]:
The Progressive Party is a big defender of free healthcare for anyone. As healthcare is a crucial human right we will do anything to provide free health for everyone in Solentia Therefore we propose the following: *Health care should be privatized. Not to lower costs. But to provide everyone free health care. The budget can stay the same while offering better service to our people. *A hospital can not make a profit bigger then 12%. This to maintain a human face. As we know this profit margin is very low this will still be cheaper then the government owning everything. *The government should help everyone who needs medication. That's why we propose that everyone earning less then 18000 a year should get his/her medication payed back by a 100%. People earning more then 18000 and less then 35000 should get it payed back by 75%. Everyone earning more then 35000 gets it payed back by 50%. This also be paid with money we saved from the privatization. *Health care insurance will also be subsidized by the government. Also here corporations can not make a profit margin higher then 12%. |
