We agree the system needs repair. We disagree as to how we define radical and costly, but we can not begin to get into that part of the discussion if at the core you do not believe that government should be involved in health care in the first place.

It already is involved, in a very big way.

And why can't you get in to the discussion of what's wrong with the system and how it might be improved, without first agreeing that the government needs to be more involved (or even involved at all)? You might indeed come to an agreement at the end of the conversation that there should be more government involvement, but its hardly a prerequisite for a conversation about the problem. It seems your putting the conclusion ahead of the discussion.
