Free health care isn't free. It is still paid for only now with more bureaucracy, rasied taxes or ifnlated money.

I assume this post was meant for me, not Kantor.
Our economic callpse was due to government involvment in artifically inflated housing prices and illiquid debts created from government policies and programs. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were government, not private.
real Under a capitalist economy, the bubble would never have built itself up like that (because market forces would have kept housing prices at value) nor would we bail out anybody (they'd go to bankruptcy court like everyone else and the good assets sold to capable companie and the bad assets liquidated instead of being bought with our tax money).
