You're right and as far as it goes, it would be a boon.
Unfortunately, that requires a free market approach to keep costs
competitive and we just got a crap sandwich of a "health care" bill.
This is gonna be a diaster and the more the details are being exposed,
it's becoming apparent that it's nothing more than a Chavez style take
over of a major industry - confiscatory and restrictive.
Hopefully, 2010 will bring a reversal of this boondoogle.
For different reasons, like you, I'm not overly happy with the proposed
health care bill, but we've been trying, without success, to get health
care legislation for 60 years. Regardless, of this bill's quality, that
sacred cow has been slaughtered. Now, fine tuning, in the future, will
be considerably easier to accomplish.
Why have we been trying to get health care legislation for 60 years?
Other than to control the population what does the health care
legislation do?
Gets the government into skiming the health care revenue for general
government corruption.
But like you note, it is easier to control your people if you have them
taxed poor and can't afford alternatives. And with one service
provider, forget alternatives.
