I have an idea. Remove government management of this industry.

Exactly.

Everyone should know it's completely illegal to open a hospital. It's illegal to charge less at 3am when you're not busy.

Any and all competition, even weak competition like Urgent Care, should be encouraged.

So your solution to overly complex/cumbersome regulations and laws...is to completely deregulate the healthcare industry? You can't think of something in the middle that's not as reckless?

It's not just cumbersome - it's completely illegal to open a hospital. The lack of competition is the root of all of this mess.
