I agree. Private health insurance companies are horribly inefficient. The amount of waste that occurs is phenomenal and is responsible for a great deal of unnecessary spending of healthcare dollars. I have no reason to think that the government would be any worse than what we've got now. Of course, I'm not sure it would be any better either.
