Humanitarian considerations aside, sheer economics dictates that country X should institute, as country Y has done, a nationwide system of air and ground transportation for conveying seriously injured persons to specialized trauma centers  Timely access to the kind of medical care that only specialized centers can provide could save the lives of many people
The earnings of these people would result in a substantial increase in country X' s gross national product, and the taxes paid on those earnings would substantially augment government revenues
the treatment of seriously injured persons in trauma centers is not more costly than treatment elsewhere
