OK I expect this thread to be closed in about 10 seconds, but here's the way out of the healthcare problem.

Pay cash for your medical services. Then you may actually pay attention to what kind of service and the quality of the service you receive. It's called medical savings accounts.

Then for the 1% who get a major illness before they have saved enough to pay for it, you have catastrophic health insurance with a very large deductable to discurage it's use as a day to day account.

If you want competition for this insurance allow all 2,000 insurances companies in the US to compete nation wide. You don't need the government to create another company just to compete with the 2,000 that already exists.

The solution is simple that's why it will not be implemented. Because this is not about a health care crises it's about a government takeover of every aspect of your life. If they control your health, by definition they control your life.
