Questioning The Costs

When we look at the costs of medical bills and perscription bills, why are they so high? I question myself this all the time, and it's time for you to start questioning it as well. Me, myself have looked into this topic a lot, and researched so much on this topic. For example, to get tested for cancer and such, you need to go through tons of examinations and such, when this 16 year old kid had found a way to detect certain types of cancers in a matter of minutes, with a device that costs cents to make, and that's non-commerically! So if a 16 year old boy can do this, starting off with just information he used from the internet, why are doctors that have been in the field for years not able to research and find cheaper solutions? The reason is simple, and it's to make money. These hospitals and companys can charge really what ever they want, and what are you going to do about it? Not accept it and be sick? Of course not, and this is where hospitals and corporate companys are exploiting all of us, us americans, because we have no other chooices, yet. Hopefully someone will expose there more, and find a cheaper way to do things. It's really sad that we have to pay 1000 times more than what we should for things, sometimes even more, when we don't really need to.
