Reading you, I feel you believe free market is some sort of God that cannot ever be contested, and everything should be the same/consistent. The real world is way more complex. Healthcare is not like food.
>if govt controlled healthcare works, then govt controlled everything and anything could work.
Absolutely not: we have enough examples showing the opposite. Govt-controlled food prices usually does not work, and bargaining drug prices betwen a state and private companies actually does, in many countries!!
Free market is a tool, very efficient to serve the people in most cases. But if that tool does not work very well for the people of the Unites States in a particular industry, why not change the rule in that industry?
Afraid of entering of world of complexity where free market is not the only, systematic solution?
Reality is diverse, even if it's annoying intellectually.
