OK, but the problems of the system today have a lot of connection to government involvement.

Also its not like its some small narrow special case one area to give the government a shot. Its something like a $2tril a year area.

"they probably don't care whether they offload the problem to the government or employees..."

Big businesses that previously made promises to unions that they can no longer afford to keep would like to offload healthcare onto government. So should we get into bed with Big Auto et al?
