Have no issue if these companies created something with their own money to serve a market that wants it. Cheap insurance, a “chain” of hospitals and health clinics, generic drugs, patent-free medial products. Whatever floats their boat.

I personally dont think I would ever use anything produced by Amazon in this sector though.

Henry Kaiser did just that in the 1940’s. His system must be “OK” because it survives yet until today.

Still, anything like the Kaiser approach — which it seems the Buffet-Bezos-Morgan behemoth will be — isn’t gonna solve the American health care industry’s huge overall problems, as long as third parties (government, insurance companies, whatever) stand between most patients and most of their doctors.
