I didn't mean the government had to destroy the link between employment and health care by outlawing it.

It's funny how we never have to discuss out-of-control costs in health care procedures like elective cosmetic surgery and laser eye surgery. Those procedures are subject to normal market forces of supply and demand -- and have gotten much less expensive over time. The reason for this is simple: Insurance plans don't cover them, and people pay for them out of their own pockets.

Imagine that.

The market could and would rectify this XYZCare issue as well, If the politicians would stay out of the way...

Every attempt by our government to fix a problem creates a larger and more intractable one.. and I expect that this will be no different.
