Dancing on the grave of health care "reform"

Hell, I’m fine with making ideology irrelevent to the queston. Bring a free market solution that will solve all the problems that UHC does, I’m on board. Be a hell of a lot easier than fighting Big Money ever step of the way, even if it were only 90% as good, I’d be willing to consider it.

But that would certainly mean that the profits the insurance companies are wallowing in today will have to be minimized. And their executives wont earn much more than the executives of the Salvation Army.

Of course, it would be a great thing for their country! Wouldn’t it be a grand thing, to see them rush to volunteer?

I don’t give even half a shit about whether a solution is “free market” or not. I care whether it’s private sector or publich sector. Charities are part of the private sector. And charities could do everything in the current health care reform billl and more (hell, a charity could provide UHC). Government involvement is completely unnecessary (unless, of course, one wants to force everyone to accept your ideas, which is exactly what you want to do).
