I think it's ridiculous to take one very badly run program and use that as a reason not to have universal healthcare.

And please name a program that is both run by the private sector and the government, and the government does a better job.

Private education is far better, and far cheeper.

Private healthcare is far better, and far cheeper.

Private roads are better and cheeper then public roads.

Contracted security forces are better and cheeper then government ones (it's why the military contracts them).

Private manufacturing is far better and cheeper then government. It's why our military buys it's equipment, and does not make it.

All around, the private sector does things a lot better, and cheeper then the government.

If this is the case, why would you want to move something that's done so poorly in the private sector to the government with hopes of it getting better?

And in reality, our system is the best in the world if you remove the cost. Your going to look to Government to remove cost?
