A non-transparent system is not one I'll define as a free market based system.

That's a "no true Scotsman" problem, though. If the US doesn't (or didn't pre-ACA) have a market-based healthcare system, then who does? And if no one does, how do we know it's better?

No, it's not a "no true scotsman" problem. The US is fundamentally not a market based system. Painting it as such is just wrong.
