>>I don't. I think the government should pick up the tab for "high risk" insurance, those utterly uninsurable, charge what the "market" will bear, and let the taxpayers fund the rest. Also for those who top out on their one million lifetime insurance. That could be accomplished either at the state or local level by subsidizing private policies or incorporation into a federal system.

I don't see how contorting the whole industry into a federal system to accommodate the above minority is constructive. Tail wagging the dog<<

And I don't see how doing what you suggest above will reduce healthcare costs, or even health insurance costs.
