The problem with Free-Market Healthcare is why it's an issue now....It's a free market goods and service that not everyone can afford. There are millions who do not have health insurance because they cant afford it or just dont want to pay for it. When they get sick or injured, their misfortune is our misery as Govt. inevitably picks up the tab or pays the price for their illness or injury. Allowing Free Market Capitalism to assume responsibility for Healthcare is asinine as well. The bottom line in Capitalsim is money. There's no incentive to have people healthy when they wont be paying for Healthcare products and services. There's nothing particularly positive about Free Market Healthcare providers who have a monopoly on Healthcare goods and services that can maintain and save lives. It's admirable that Liberals are trying to address this by first getting some sort of health insurance to as many people as they can. Competition among Healthcare providers for goods and services to those who need it should be a good thing. That's a positive about Capitalism in that competition will motivate business people to produce the best quality product for the individual.
