I don’t think you could find even one person who thinks our healthcare system is a free market system. If only we could make it a free market system I think most of the problems would solve themselves. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s feasible to untangle the decades of junk laws. Instead, it honestly might just be a better idea to implement single-payer. At least the incentives mostly line up unlike 3rd party payer.

How can you have a free market system where the most expensive items are heart attacks, organ replacements, brain operations and other situations where you often don't have a chance to "shop around"? Unless we have price controls and socialized medicine like other more modern nations, our system will remain a failure.
