The government has no business in health care.

Actually that's correct, concerning the federal government. The 10th Amendment relegates powers to the states and the people. (and churches/charities)

Since their inception, insurance and other components of the "financial services" industry have been the most heavily regulated sector of the economy (everywhere in the world)

Guess why that is.

The Commerce clause allows regulation of interstate commerce. (interstate competition) After that, the good-regulation state insurers will proliferate, as the bad-regulation state companies fade away.

(or their states will quickly enact market-friendly reforms)

Thanks for expanding and clarifying my post.

So do you think Trump/Ryan will completely repeal the AHCA act and return the power to the states or just try to ‘improve’ it?

Can we hang this on Ryan (Ryancare)? I doubt seriously the MSM will go for that in the long run.
