The US system is such a mess. It's supposed to be a free market, and yet the middlemen and the doctors are arguing about who should set the prices. Guys, this is not how capitalism is supposed to work. Imagine this model in any other sector - it would be illegal and also a total joke.

That's what an actual free market solution looks like. It wouldn't be perfect but it would be a damn site better than what you have currently.
