I'm not sure what Healthcare has to do with politics. Healthcare is the business of healing and politics is the art of bullshit. The two should remain separate. I'm not going to start a Healthcare debate here, I'll just say there's a better way to do things and no one in the world has a great system. They could all be better.
As to the title, I doubt it. Remove all donated money from the equation, put all players on the same field with the same tools, add term limits, eliminate retirement plans for elected officials, prosecute for misleading statements and all would even out. It won't happen overnight but if campaigns are more like a job interview and less like a Broadway production, we should be able to elect some officials who will do good. Government should not be a career, it should be a service to the nation.
To clean up the mess we're in now, we need to hold those responsible, accountable. Try and prosecute them. Enact laws banning 'special interest' from government. Enact and enforce much stronger environmental laws. Abolish the Infernal revenue disservice and establish a flat tax rate. Reform tort law, rescind the health care bill and start over.
