Is there some way in which "consumer-driven" means something other than
"unregulated?"

Is health care so unimportant that it deserves no regulation?

Is health care so unimportant that people should have to compete with each
other (that's the other side of the equation when the companies are
competing) for basic care?  If we take it as a given that a consumer-driven
market for health care is better, then why not do the same with roads,
police, water, oxygen, etc.?  How do you draw the line there?
