John; You know the basic structural flaw referred to in all these conversations is having healthcare insurance built out of a for-profit system. Given that, it can either be tightly regulated or a country to move to single payer. So far as I know, we are the one developed country that is the exception to those two answers. Our health insurance is for profit and lightly regulated, compared to the other countries. Boy you nailed the problem with an exceptional explanation. I give you the "post of the day award". BTW, this explanation is why two people with such differing political leanings as you and I have, can come to the conclusion that the best solution is for single payer government run HC. I think that is what you would prefer - even though we both acknowledge that won't happen. At least not right away. While we get to the same conclusion the reason we arrived there are very different I believe.
