> A wholly privatized, largely deregulated health care market is toxic to entrepreneurialism because of these risks. Except that the American health insurance market is both regulated in the extreme and, in the case of the extremely poor and the elderly, heavily subsidized by taxpayers as Medicaid/Medicare. I really don't know what the effects of a private, deregulated health insurance market would be because we're so far from that. I think there may be good arguments for either free market health care or nationalized health care. But whatever this thing that we've got is, it should be burned to the ground.
