Healthcare costs twice as much in the US as most of the developed world, and in many cases the quality is actually worse. What is it you like about that? Universal care would actually be less expensive.

And your definition of "free market" seems pretty twisted. Cuz there's really nothing "free market" about our current healthcare system. We have great healthcare for the wealthy, mediocre healthcare for most who get it through provided or purchased insurance, and bankruptcy or die healthcare for those who can't. And again, unlike most of the developed world, a major medical problem will often still cause bankruptcy for the insured.
You mean there is someone who still trusts the CDC?
