I feel this is a problem the government created so the government could come up with never ending "solutions".

The issue needs to be defined better. The point of health insurance is to prevent me from going bankrupt due to a catastrophic illness.

Instead of socialized health care we needed insurance reform and for the collusion between health providers and health insurers to end.

No other industry allows this sort of collusion to occur. My doctor and my insurance company should not be talking to each other.

In the case of some the healthcare provider and insurer are basically the same. CVS Caremark for example.
