Amy, Re: Brian, health care is one of the most inefficient industry that's consumes too much of the GDP and drags it down I work in the healthcare industry and I agree 100% as I see it everyday. Regards, Brian

No question in my mind that health care is highly inefficient. But what to do? Probably the biggest cause for this inefficiency is the high degree of government influence throughout the health care industry. I doubt, though, that most Americans would be willing to trust the health care business to the free market, even though I think this would probably be the best course. Given that deregulation and less government is probably unrealistic due to unpopularity of the ideas, what other solutions exist?
