How exactly is retirement or medical care less expensive than let's say 50 years ago? The same treatment is about 10 x more expensive because the dollar lost its purchasing power.

To be faire, since 1980 government try to destroy the quality of our services by transferring every thing to private companies . And currently, every thing is more and more expensive... It still cost 1€ to see a doctor, before it was free.(and with new reforms it going to cost as much as in America :( )

ps: I check who create health fare in France... it's not government... It was created by wartime resistant. And it was worker's union who managed social security.

You're right, government don't help...

i'm speaking about France

Interesting. A lot of market distortions in American health insurance came from wartime price controls. Of course, lots of other factors messed up the rest of healthcare markets, often owing to government planning/corruption.
