When it comes to ACA I am trying to find a simple way of explaining the following consequences of comparative advantage.
States differ in care giver compensation rates
States differ in both premium and subsidy rates
Therefore there will be both medicaid/medicare and caregiver migration.
I thought it blindingly obvious that
A) patient to caregiver ratios would tilt.
B) waiting line deaths would tilt.
Since I try to avoid talking down to people I did not point out A & B. I found out that this confused or caused disbelief in some posters. Is there a simpler way of making this point?
