What are you talking about? I gave 3 very specific examples in my post.
Quote: Things like policy portability, a greater ability to create risk pools, the ability to buy policies originating in a different state.
The Government restricts all of these things.
In addition, the government could drastically reduce the barriers to creating new drugs and treatments. Do these barriers save some lives: yes. But they end up killing many more because the FDA is always going to error on the side of caution, thereby denying the treatments that work to people who desperately need them.
