The health care situation in the United States is horrible. The debate is completely dominated by a political class who wish to socialize the sector.
The Conservative Party in the United States reacts against the call for socialism but has a long history of never doing anything.
This means that United States is stuck with the worse of both worlds. The people at large get the low quality care associated with socialism and the high prices that come from insurance.
It would be interesting to have a debate about the correct way to do health care in a free society. A free society is likely to end up with high quality care at a lower price.
Unfortunately, conservatives and progressives alike suppress free market ideas ... that means the American health care system is doomed to fail.
