  • It’s even more difficult since the content has to be stored somewhere, and needs to be streamed which requires storage and processing power, with the latter needing to be able to scale so the user experience doesn’t get bogged down by new people joining.

    The entire revenue model of compensating the host and content creator does require a rethink, but it’s hard to see how that could be done without paywalling access to host, view, and/or both of the above.












  • If you think administrative waste is an issue with a single payer healthcare system, then imagine how much additional waste is created by having hospitals and clinics deal with multiple private insurers with their various plan coverages, exceptions, and deductibles.

    There’s also the differing pre-approval requirements for the same procedure to be covered by different insurers, as well as appeal processes for denials.

    Then there’s financing and collections for the people that have been treated without insurance. The hospitals and clinics still have to get reimbursed for their costs still, regardless of who’s paying.

    While the public system may have its inefficiencies, a private system is rather inefficient and moderately expensive at the best of times.
