I am all for stepping in and fixing healthcare. And if what you say could be done, I would not be against it.

It would be against my ideology, but if what you painted could be done, I would not argue against it.

But there has never been an example of government running anything well. I would be much more for government reform then I would the government taking over.

So should we let the private sector run the military? Or the police?

 

 

No, because it's our counties responsibly to protect us from others (domestic and foreign).

If they were run privately however, they would run a lot more efficiently (it's why we have contractors, they do things a lot cheeper).

It's the governments job to protect you, not to provide for you. In a free society, there is no way for the government to provide for you, as they have no assets to provide. Anything they have, they must take from someone first. Taking from an individual to provide for another, is against there sole purpose of existing... to protect you.
