The beginning of the end occurred when MBA types took over the business part of medicine. To add to this disaster hospitals administrators sought tax exempt status from the IRS under the doctrine of "for the greater good." When people discovered that a person could get "free" health care in an ER because it was "for the greater good" hospital overhead skyrocketed. Send in millions of uninsured illegal aliens and the model became unsustainable. Medical care should be fee for service like any other industry. Get rid of the 501c3 status and watch what happens. If the federal government feels the need to meddle expand the HSA concept and allow people on social security the opportunity to use the plan. Competition is good, single payer is bad.

Lots of common sense here.

I laughed at his take on coverage for "Pre existing" conditions...imagine...getting life insurance after a family member dies and when the insurance company say's...we can't cover your family member because they have already passed on...and you say...it was a pre-existing condition!
