I really think this (Can the Federal Government provide healthcare more efficiently"
is not the correct question to ask.
I think the real question is, "If the Federal Government does NOT provide healthcare, then will the poor, the chronically ill, and those most in need of healthcare have affordable access to quality, life-saving healthcare?"
It may well be (although I really doubt it) that the private sector (with its profit motive) provides "efficient" health care (whatever that means).
But I want a healthcare system that provides affordable, life-saving healthcare to those in our society who cannot afford insurance, or who, because of chronic health issues, cannot even get access to affordable healthcare.
