A Bad Idea In Any Form

I often argue against the privatization of health care. The general theme behind those criticisms is that if health care becomes a wholly corporate matter rather than a reflection of societal responsibility, the pursuit of health care provision in this country will focus on profits even more than it already does. That state governments are finding private Medicare insurance to be problematic, insufficient, and of little or no use to their citizens is a prime indicator that there might be something to my argument after all.
