I am not sure I understand you.

The healthcare issue is difficult -- when one steps back a bit, they observe an apparent fixed volume of illness and corresponding health care being provided.

I don't think the amount of health care being provided is fixed. For one thing the population is growing. If you consider health care per person, well certainly the amount of money spent per person has gone up, I suppose you are disputing if any more care if being provided for this extra money. I think the answer is yes, esp. for the elderly, and probably for infants as well and to a lesser degree for the rest of the population.

I'm not sure what you mean by a "balanced equation" in this context so I can't tell you if I think it is a illusion or not.
