You do realize there are a million doctors? There are probably 2000 rural doctors in Alaska alone!
We did not have this major issue with healthcare until government got involved. Now its broken and the people who broke it want to fix it? Crony capitalism at its best or as smart people call it, socialism!

Yeah but just think of the Velocity of the Almighty Dollars all the associated "Consultants" will be shooting out of their backsides into the "economy"!
Ain't technocratic oligarchic kleptocracy great?

Before government got involved, the average American didn't have ANY healthcare other than home remedies, and the average life expectancy was less than 50 years.

How long has government been sticking its nose into healthcare in your world?
The rest of the known world its only been since the 60-70's and real life expectancy has changed very little since then or even since the 50's(World wars skew results). We have seen nothing warrant government intrusion and when they did interfere it just raised the rates for everyone with no difference in results(You find this in crony capitalism). Now its so bad no one can afford it except the rich and government workers.
50 years? We are talking about preUncivil war for that figure.
BTW stuck in a hospital with tubes stuck everywhere for 10 years is not making life longer but preserving a body so hospitals can get rich.

Before the insurance companies got heavily involved, people went to the doctor, paid case, and got affordable care. The doctors even made house calls.
Now, you go to the doctor for the sniffles, they want a blood and urine sample, and to perform every test your insurance will pay for.
The government, via Obamacare, has made private health insurance mandatory. The more affordable policies carry a $6,500 deductable, making them essentially useless for the poor people most likely to purchase them to meet the government requirement. The main benefit is statistical -- the government can claim the person is insured.

Exactly. This crony capitalism at its worse and some think its great. They just must be blind to the truth.
Here in Texas we have to have car insurance and the poor buy insurance for a month then stop paying so they can get their vehicle registered. It will happen to healthcare too.
If government is the answer then you are asking the wrong question!

Well the states began compulsory vaccination against smallpox back in the early 1800's, and the federal Vaccine Act of 1813 was enacted to prevent hucksters from offering fraudulent & contaminated vaccines to the states.
But more recently, Teddy Roosevelt signed the Meat Inspection Act & Pure Food & Drug Act of 1906 began the regulation of prescription drugs (along with the Harrison Act of 1914) It was also during this period that states began licensing physicians educated by modern science instead of letting snake-oil hucksters, quacks, conartists and faith healers bamboozle people who were desperately seeking a cure for whatever ailed them.

So instead of blaming Obamacare, why don't you just ban private insurance for everybody?

Forcing someone to buy auto insurance is crony capitalism.
I'm probably in the minority on this but who cares.
You shouldn't have to have insurance to operate a car. It is kind of like assuming you are guilty.
Now if you do get in an accident and you end up owing a lot of money. That is your problem and you should have to pay it back. Maybe it isn't practical in todays world but that is what I believe.
Yes I have insurance. Good insurance. USAA.
