"The real problem with this stab wound is it damaged their liver. Putting a bandage over the wound isn't going to solve that, what they really need is surgery!"
"We're twenty miles away from a hospital, we need to stop the bleeding or they'll die before we get them to a doctor."
"A bandage isn't going to save them. Only a surgeon will."
That's under the assumption that you're actually getting them to a doctor and not just slapping the bandaid on and calling it a day.
And I would argue that in either case, stopping the bleeding is still the immediate goal.
And would be correct. But if we're planning a health system, and I keep insisting on bandaids but refuse to even talk about anything else, my proposal is a bait-and-switch. That's the problem, not UBI/NIT, as a concept.
