“Get government entirely OUT of the business of billing or paying for the practice of medicine.”

Consider the cases of Captains “Hawkeye” Pierce and B.J. Honeycutt and Nurse Houlihan.

The US government has the power to “raise and support armies” and those warriors can wield swords, or scalpels.

I’m sure your doctor would rather have the choice of voluntary participation in a federal government program than two years’ service in a place a President Newsom might choose.

Leftists in California and New York pay billions in federal taxes and they would rather have their federal tax dollars used for scalpel wielders instead of guys roaming around on military bases that aren’t even normally allowed to carry guns.

The US government has the power to “raise and support armies” which is entirely irrelevant to your ridiculous meddlesome socialistic garbage "proposal".

And those "people" you mentioned are fictional characters in a fictional television comedy show that got more idiotic in its each passing year.

The last two paragraphs of your post are the product of a diseased mind.

Get government entirely OUT of the business of billing or paying for the practice of medicine.

You could go to the United Kingdom ... or Russia ... or France ... or mainland China ... heck, you could even go to Canada ... then you'd have the government controlled "Health Care" (that's Barack Obama's term, BTW) you so long for ...
