This is basically a religious belief at this point. It's how a perfectly ideal free market might work, but we don't have any of these, especially in healthcare.

Do you not use private businesses or something? Do you not shop at a private grocer or order things from Amazon or use a private search engine?

Probably 99% of what I consume comes from private companies and the services generally get better over time, with some exceptions. Compare that to an experience with the TSA.

>Because if something sucks, someone comes up with something better and sells it for a profit. This is the history of pretty much every other good or service that is not heavily influenced by regulation and artificial barriers to entry

You're adorable! Do you believe in Santa and the tooth fairy too?

No need for blind belief, you can always visit Venezuela, North Korea or Cuba to see how a country without free markets fares.

Or come here in Eastern Europe where we had the "pleasure" of trying both systems and see how free markets pulled us out of utter poverty.
