I try to keep an open mind. I don't believe things will just solve themselves, nor do I think the market is the perfect solution. I do believe, however, that it's a better solution than government intervention, and we haven't found a superior solution.

Also, source for your second assertion?

The US has the highest healthcare costs in the OECD on an aggregate basis, on a per capita basis, and on a share of GDP basis.

The OECD publishes copious statistics on healthcare expenditures, access, quality, and outcomes: http://www.oecd.org/health/health-data.htm
