And to clarify, by "driving down costs" you mean "throw ppl off the system & leave them to fend for themselves w/o gov't role

No, I mean reducing the overall cost of health care so more people can afford it.
-
The standard must be "all people", not "more people", and many can't even afford car insurance, let alone health insurance
-
The standard should be middle class people who work and never expect someone else to pay for their responsibilities

I refuse to live my life saying "F you if you live in pain because you're poor.F you if you suffer & die. I got mine."

Because only way 2 drive down costs is 2 let Free Market take the lead. Govt "plans" got us into this mess.
-
Free Market is the actually the worst solution to improving healthcare and reducing costs.
-
The free market has no interest in improving healthcare outcomes or providing coverage to more people, only profit.
-
Matthew we don't have free markets now. Government is so involved with rules and regs it drives up cost

do you support pricing transparency, where rates are posted and all consumers get that same price. Ending network pricing.
-
No, don't force price controls. But disclosing prices would be wonderful!
-
currently medicaid pays way less, and passes cost on to private policies in a stealth subsidy.
-
Good point! But regulating private actors to remedy state abuse? Surely there's a better fix.

Isn't the only way to ensure cost savings to remove government role altogether?

is there a plan to reform drug patent law? I'm no expert but the 20 yr monopolies drive up costs dramatically.
-
don't need to be an expert to see that government sponsored monopolies drive up cost. Just need a brain.
-
Not to mention regulations perpetually added, which drives up costs and limits other market entrants.
