Being that preventable illnesses and overhead represents the vast majority of the healthcare cost the only way to manage the cost of healthcare without impacting outcomes is to reduce the number of people who are sick, and to catch illnesses at an earlier stage when they cost (far) less to treat. Even though I have seen debates on what to do about healthcare hundreds of times over the past decades I have never seen anyone debate how to reduce healthcare costs, only people who argue about who should pay it.

Yea, but it's real hard to win an election, when the real answer is "The people in the US need to change there lifestyle".

It's infinitely easier to win saying "Keep doing what your doing, and I will fix the problem", even if it's a lie.
