Nixon was presented with the first model of a health care industry to be doled out by HMO's.

He was shown the great new corporate profits for Republican middlemen and so he introduced the first HMO health care delivery system with each middleman taking a huge slice of the pie paid for by medicine denied and operations the insurance company would refuse to pay for. ( See Sicko)

For example the school lunch program for kids getting a breakfast lunch and dinner snack is $6.98 in our neck of the woods. Exactly one dollar goes toward the food and the rest is administrative costs.

With health care for every one hundred dollars of health care you pay for, $88 dollars is administrative.
