Well, I support universal preventative health, cradle to grave. The details on how is what should be debated. Sadly, the special interests saw their golden goose at risk and put on a full scale defense causing the PPACA to be a camel and not a horse.
So because the current level of government meddling in healthcare has caused prices to skyrocket well beyond the overall rate of inflation, we need even more of government meddling to fix the rising prices? Logic fail there.
Anyone think it's a coincidence that the two markets where government meddles most (healthcare and education) are the two areas where prices are most out of control?

You need to prove your premise; explain how "government meddling in health care" is the cause for "prices to skyrocket well beyond the overall rate of inflaiton" Don't be shy, explain the "meddling" and its costs and benefits.
BTW, claiming government meddling includes administrations of both D's and R's and since 1981 we've had 20 years of R's and 12 years of D's in the White House. Nothing was done by Congress either, and both parties during this time enjoyed majorities. What does that suggest to you?
I did this already in my second post in the thread. You can read ALL about it Here
