I would think that government run health care might generate significant savings by controlling communicable diseases, and stopping chronic conditions, like diabetes, from progressing to critical, and much more expensive, levels. I would think it might also produce savings by lessening sick days in the working poor, and by increasing productivity (since the working sick are not especially good workers).

For compassionate reasons I believe in universal health care, but I think it would also have economic benefits.
