" Even before ObamaCare, it wasn't really free market. As an example, in New York, when I wanted to bid out my health insurance, we had boundaries. I could only go in New York. If I wanted to bid it out to a company from California or New Jersey, anywhere--you get no bids."

If you were a thinking conservative you know the answer is interstate commerce with the competition and the lower prices it would bring.

"No. No, these are different times. And over the years, you are going to change your attitudes. You're going to learn things and you're going to change. And I have evolved on that issue. I have evolved on numerous issues....We must have universal health care"

Yeah, universal health care works so well in other countries with all the waiting times for appointments, waiting times for simple tests, long waiting times for procedures, the doctors retiring, not to mention anything run by the Federal government ALWAYS waste money and reduces efficiency. It's simply the nature of government.

Are you sure you're on the correct board? We here, believe in Free Enterprise that creates competition which always lowers costs. I've owned 3 small companies and know how to read a Balance Sheet and a Profit&Loss statement and know how to compete. Apparently, you don't get capitalism. Maybe you should be talking with the socialist/commies on Slate.

Thought you were a smart person. Apparently you are ignorant to what makes any private company successful, or maybe you're just getting old and want free stuff paid by others. That I would understand, but would hold you in contempt. I'd rather die that make others pay for medical costs. IT'S NOT A RIGHT TO HAVE OTHERS PAY FOR YOUR DOCTOR! It's YOUR responsibility.

Yes. Buying everything across state lines only makes good economic, free market sense.
