Having also worked in the private sector, everything I know about ANY government agency leads me to believe that they are almost universally inefficient, mismanaged and miserable places to work.

I just don't understand this incredible desire people have for socialism. Capitalism works, folks. Let the free market do it's thing and pare this massive beast of a government down.

this is the issue. free market with health care isn't working. and the costs are skyrocketing. people are ready to try something new. even if it means the government gets involved
