Health Care costs went down during the 80s

Health Care Costs Going Up

No Surprise Health care Costs are going up

What is a shock is that in the 80s health care costs per person went down.  What was going on in the 80s that made this possible?

Either it was a odd time in American demography or we were doing something right.  If it turns out that we, as a country, were doing something right, then it is time to do something about it before this problem gets even more out of control.  Now if it turns out it was just demography, then we won’t have any control over that.

Government Health Care Regulations in the 80s

Insurance Companies in the 80s

I’m going to do some research and then finish this up.
