We need to get rid of the private insurance business.

And replace it with what? A highly efficient, national, single-payer system run by bureaucrats in Washington? What have you been smoking?

You want to blame it all on the insurance companies and then replace them in the system with one big nationalized health insurance monopoly? Why would a government monopoly be any better than a competitive marketplace in efficiently delivering quality health care? Because it would be subject to the whim -oops- oversight of politicians? LOL.

You really SHOULD have studied Marxism a little more carefully. Then socialism and its other variants - political-economic systems built on the badly flawed assumption that central planning works better than free markets.
