Good. Block their deal, let them drop out of obamacare, and then give us the Single Payer that we've always deserved and watch those fuckers go bankrupt like they've always deserved.

i couldn't in any good conscience support single-payer or socialized medicine it's the same economic model that created breadlines

free market systems are dynamic and adjustable to real-world inputs in a way that no planned system can match in terms of providing the most service/product to the most people.

what people really want when they push for socialized medicine is equality over improvement.

envy holds us back so much.

That's great for the people with lots of money. Not great for the people who die or go bankrupt in the name of "improvement".

Liberalize healthcare to allow anyone to provide it.

Did you know that before the AMA was created that doctors had to do house calls or face living in abject poverty as a result of the market being flooded with healthcare professionals?
