It certainly can't fix high drug cost, high practice costs, and lawsuits.

The company I use to work for paid roughly 3 million in health care to Blue Cross Blue Shield and 7 people in the company were responsible for 70% of the medical pay out cost. Needless to say BCBS raised our cost the next year. Point is fixing the health care system is hell of a challenge. A very difficult one at that but I refuse to be so cynical and believe it can't be solved.
I agree with you on the point that our health care syatem need work I don't agree that it is totaly broken. It needs for all parties to come together, doctors, hospitals, insurance co's, and drug co's, etcc... and fix what broken. Goverment run health ins. is not the answer.

7 1/2 hours till kick off.
