As soon as government got into the insurance business prices went up
and quality went down.
According to the Goldwater Institute, health care prices went up in parallel
to the prevalence of private insurance. And the big spike corresponds to the
inauguration of Ronald Reagan. Look at the graph on this page:

'Private' insurance IS government sponsored and regulated. Government
intervention was brought about by insurance and financial corporations
seeking monopoly control of the industry.
Insurance is not a proper venue of government regulation. Medical
insurance is a primary influence on costs. If such controls were
eliminated medical costs would fall by at least 50%.
Medicare and medicaid are government insurance.
You need alternative forms of medicine.
I don't care what you say, I am NOT going to start seeing your witch doctor.

Before this is over there will be individuals in every neighborhood
'practicing' medicine sans license.
