Because Americans all think they deserve attention from someone that fits their personal image of what a doctor should be—-in terms of race, gender, age and personality. Someone who is in the top .001% of intelligence and with twenty years of training. All to spend hours listening to them complain about their cold or achey knees. And they don’t want to have to wait. Also, they don’t think they should have to pay anything for it. Instead of acknowledging the impossibility of their desires they jump from villain to villain and magical silver bullet to magical silver bullet. The politicians of course don’t tell them they are being childish, but instead indulge their fantasies. Why do you think the ability to shop around for a physician something so crucial to preserve in any reform? What does that have to do with outcomes?
