I had a near fatal heart attack in 2006.
My wife has the same cancer former Chief Justice Rehnquist suffered from, and she has had 6 surgeries, and also chemo and radiation since 1995.
Because the economy has GUTTED our business which depended on leases of equipment, we cannot afford private health insurance any longer.
AND THE LAST THING I WANT IS GOVT HEALTH INSURANCE
Where we live there are a FEW (3?) major private insurers. There is NO free market. You can imagine the result.
My wife goes to a specialist at Mass General who teaches at Harvard. Our initial experience with this rare cancer revealed a local LACK OF KNOWLEDGE as to what to do which resulted in nearly disastrous misjudgments which we as private citizens corrected by taking control of the course of therapy, with legal recourse with regard to our insurance company in which they were compelled to agree my wife could go to Mass General where they had a clue.
One cannot sue the govt if they do the same job with health care they have done to the American Indian. It is ILLEGAL.
Instead, ENSURE that if a plan is available in Nevada is it available EVERYWHERE. If it available in Connecticut it is available everywhere.
THIS, the free market, and competition will ensure lower prices, and better products.
The only areas I can think of in which the govt made things better are civil rights (which they eventually messed up utterly by official discrimination against another 'race', and attempting to demand equal outcomes rather than equal opportunity), and WAR.
If the government offers ANY cheaper health alternative the eventual outcome is ordained.
That's why Walmart, Rite-Aid, Walgreens etc have driven out their competitors ..cheaper will sooner or later become irresistible in the fullness of economic cycles and time.
Anyone who argues otherwise is a fool or a liar.
Including Mr. Obama.
