<yowling about free markets and capitalism>
the profit motive is what has driven healthcare to what is possible today. if there is an uncoupling of health outcomes and profit motive, the solution is not to delete the profit motive! the government needs to enact only the necessary and sufficient regulation to realign making money with the desired results. avoid regulatory capture, make the information transparent and available.
i dont understand this demonization of capitalism. the world involved in (and adjacent to) capitalism is, by almost _every.single.measure_, vastly better than even as recently as 50 years ago. communist china sure didnt do that.
its capable of corruption! lets fix that corruption and not throw the baby out with the bathwater
public schools and subsidized, inflated, university tuition are examples of roads we dont want to travel down.
