<<<<Competition>>>> Competition doesn't help with demographics, it doesn't help with unfunded liabilities and it doesn't help with science issue of living longer and all that means. Competition is great if you're buying a loaf of bread - but health care just doesn't work here. You want the cheapest medicine? The cheaper medicine for an antibiotic for instance might fight yesterday's infection but not today's resistant bug. You have a heart attack, you really want to shop around for the cheapest ambulance or hospital? Your child is sick, are you going to take him to the doctor in the ally who offers a 20% discount? Sorry, I don't buy the argument.
