Because to me, there's no getting around the fact that health care has become an entitlement.

Before being an entitlement, it is a cost...a zero sum cost that is escalating out of control. People won't suddenly stop getting sick...and with an aging population, the odds are that they'll get sick more often. That's the problem...the rest is politics.

There is no fix for that. IF you make it an entitlement then you insure the eventual collapse of the nation's economy.
