Yes, the choice IS government or more government, I'm afraid. That is, unless you are willing to watch people die in the street without help - because they failed to purchase insurance

That is just another false alternative. Either people get all medical care, or they get none and people will be "dying in the streets." What ever did people do before the middle of the last century and government intervention in healthcare? They must have been dropping like flies. They lived to be 60 instead of 80. Well, I'm in the camp that doesn't believe society should be a cash cow to guarantee that extra 20 years for people who made poor choices in life and didn't get insurance or don't have the cash to pay out of pocket.
