That may be, but a healthcare system run by the federal government isn't the answer. I can't see one being implemented without a major tax hike - at least 20%. I'm not saying the current system is perfect, it obviously isn't, perhaps reforming the system is a better idea than creating a whole new one that would no doubt be overpriced and incredibly inefficient.
