Health care is not like most other markets

[Hoyt]

2. I think they understand it, but from standpoint that if the government pays for it,

people will just want/use more and more of it taking more money out of the well-to-do's pockets.

And they understand that we have the most expensive healthcare in the world, less than the best outcomes, and leave a lot of people uncovered. They just don't care enough to get in there and make the changes that are necessary long-term for fear it will tick off much of their base who profit from our healthcare system or who don't want to pay for other peoples' care through taxes. They also don't want to make cuts to the blood-sucking Military Budget to fund things like healthcare and education.
