because your viewpoint, while interesting in this context, is anecdotal, you can't maintain this position of He Who Knows if the type of question gets shifted away from your baliwick.
one of the underlying issues here really is: what kind of question is "what should be done about the health care system"
i think it's a social and political question.
so it's fine to offer versions of one's expertise in the context of a question the nature of which you imagine you control--but the fact is that you don't control the nature of the question.

Understanding the causes of the problem is the first step to fixing it. My point is that if you don't work in either industry it's hard to know what they are, all you have to go on at this point is what your particular political party is spueing, whether it be republicans or democrats. I also understand that there are social aspects contributing to the problem, but as soon as something gets politicised like this, imo whats best for people usually gets tossed out the window and it becomes whats best for the party
