I couldn't watch the whole thing, but the problem with the suggestion that the free markets just take care of things and competition gets you the best deal just ain't true, and anyone who has ever submitted a health insurance claim knows this. They don't want to pay for anything. I don't get this bizarre throw back to fundamentalism (in the general sense, not the religious sense). Complex problems can't always be solved by really simple solutions.
