To fix the health care system, you need to do three simple things: (1) Repeal the 1973 legislation legalizing hmos. This will get the thieves out of the way so we can have health care, not some kind of profit center!!
(2) get back to the Hill Burton legislation, first passed in 1946 which mandates construction of enough hospitals in each county, so there are a certain number of beds (around 4.5) per 100000 population, if memory serves. Not much use in having "coverage" if there is no place to go. (3) A single payer system which has much lower administrative costs. This scheme will only work properly if we take back all the bailout money which has been stolen and restart the physical economy. Obama's health "reform" is an exact copy of Hitler's t-4 program where he stated that lives not worth of life should be given a mercy death. There is a very nice pamphlet which explains this more fully at http://www.larouchepac.com/files/media/Act_NowPOST.pdf so download that.
