[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="106" id="2346877"]The current system is broken. It's cost is ballooning...because employer based health insurance is an open checkbook and the uninsured's cost is being shifted onto the insured.

A corporation has more reason to contain costs than a government ever would, and that's the way these government schemes always work in the real world. The costs will be shifted from the
