The federales could act as a reinsurer making up for catastophic chronic disease costs. Open up the ability to ration expensive chronic services like dialysis chemo viagra. Remove the cost of defensive medicine. Provide compasionate euthanasia resorts for trolls.

Well, it doesn't matter what we think. We'll have to see who is elected, and no matter who wins, most probably you will get your way, and we will have gridlock again. I believe you have mentioned many times, with gridlock, nothing gets done. More gridlock will continue to be sure that happens again. So the prices of medical premiums will continue going up, hospital prices will continue going up, because people who don't have medical insurance continue to use the emergency as their own Doc, and people will have less care, as the Docs will continue to leave the system.
