It is surreal that in a free country we are talking only about HOW government should fix health care, rather than WHY government should fix health care.
If the Republicans in Congress were really serious about a free market in health insurance and freedom in medical care, then they would support things like medical savings accounts, allowing the use of pre-tax dollars to purchase medical insurance, a 100 percent tax credit for medical insurance and expenses, medical insurance sales across state lines, complete deregulation of the health insurance industry, unrestricted freedom of contract between insurers and insurees and between doctors and patients, the freedom of insurers to discriminate based on the perceived risk of any individual or group, the absolute right of refusal for any preexisting condition, and the repeal of any federal law related to drugs, health insurance, or medical care.
"Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem." ~ Ronald Reagan
