I'm confused as to why you're being downvoted. But I completely agree with you on the free market. My personal issue with going to the doctor is I have no idea

  Perhaps he's being downvoted (not by me!) because the claim is self-contradictory. Either a market based system "always will be better", or it could be "better if they improve the pricing visibility", which is it? Unless he's saying the US system is already superior to all others, but could be made better still. That seems like an ambitious claim.

    A non-transparent system is not one I'll define as a free market based system.

      That's a "no true Scotsman" problem, though. If the US doesn't (or didn't pre-ACA) have a market-based healthcare system, then who does? And if no one does, how do we know it's better?

        No, it's not a "no true scotsman" problem. The US is fundamentally not a market based system. Painting it as such is just wrong.
