[QUOTE="brett636, post: 608624, member: 249"] A lot of those issues would fix themselves if government would get out of the way. In one of Klien's previous posts he links to an article where it says German citizens have access to over 200 different health care plans. In this country we have 1500 health insurance companies, and if we allowed people to buy health insurance across state lines and allowed them to pay for it with pre tax dollars like their employers this could fix a lot of the problems we have with medical costs and health insurance today. Currently if an employer pays for a health insurance plan the employer is the owner of that policy. If we allowed the employee to be the owner of that policy they could take it with them when they leave. There are plenty of free market solutions to this situation, but as I stated earlier the people in Washington do not want to hear anything about free market solutions because it does not increase their power. If it doesn't increase the power of Washington then it is not considered. [/QUOTE]
