What I think Im trying to say is, if you take $500/month out of my paycheck in insurance premium, or in my tax bill it's the same thing, except I personally believe, it's likely the state will make a mess of it, because it already has.

While I don't have the stats, I believe Thomas Sowell would describe what we have now as price fixing. Look how well that usually goes.

To be clear this is assuming you are advocating for state run/socialize healthcare. If you aren't and can bring my prices down, I'm all ears, bug I'm biased to believe you'd be speaking utopian.

To be even more clear, the federal government already regulates the price of healthcare with the "open marketplace". They fix the price and coverage.

The system you have is unfixable and worse than you described it. It is made for profit and exploitation. You cannot fix that, so there is no solution with such a base, you have to change that. So i am not talking about a system with such a base (see my others comments on the thread too). Forget about USA and its monstrosity even though it is all you know. Take another country as an example. There are other ways out there and you have one of the worst or the worst.

Oh, but thanks for the extensive answer.

Yeah, the US has some good hospitals, but the insurance system is terrible. Both public and private insurance are totally bonkers over there.

Even if you pay cash, the prices are often weirdly inflated.
