OK, I get the point. No argument here, but I do wish that we could leave everything to the private sector as much as possible. I like the pay as you use scenario where the government does not interfere by imposing taxes so that the funds can be used to subsidize those who want handouts such as free health care. I understand that we need a mutual pool for law enforcement, military, highways, and a myriad of other services. It would not be practical or practicable to make private many of the tax dependent services, but at least we can put forth a concerted effort to cull what we can out of the government system and make private so that it is pay as you go or use. My thinking may seem warped to some, but personal responsibility, in my substantiate opinion, is severely lacking in our country. I exhort and implore parents to instill in their prodigy a sense of self pride and personal responsibility. I know I went off on a tangent, but this health care proposal will by no means ameliorate the current system.
