Do libertarians believe that it's government that has created an inequitable society where there is a subset of the population who can't afford adequate health care? Or is it that government has caused the U.S. system to be the most expensive in the world? Do they believe that fully privatizing the system will make it affordable for everyone? Are there any models that exist where this has happened?
