>Then you pay.

And if you can't afford it? Does society pay? Do we let them die? I'm interested in your answer.

>I have family members who are only functional because of prescription drugs.

Me too.

>I don't know what the HBR's source is because they don't tell me.

And I don't know where your 5 year number comes from because you didn't provide a source.

When I see someone on HN talk about how "oh, it will probably be okay if we leave the market alone, I read this really cool article online that said so," I see them no different than someone who stood by a river and watched their grandfather struggle against the current, because "oh, it will probably be okay." You don't know what you are talking about. Stop it.
