Even other developed nations often have some form of cost-sharing, I think having some small charge helps offset administrative costs and prevents people from going to the doctor for every cold.
What we have right now with deductibles and co-insurance is ludicrous though, that shit needs to go.

I truly because cost-sharing is necessary to keep total costs reasonable and unnecessary visits down. Plus, it offers a minor incentive to actually be healthy. Health should be a personal responsibility just as much as a government responsibility. I don't support subsidizing unhealthy habits.
