It would have been better, back in the day, to have separate accounts for each person, and have the withholdings and matches paid into them (minus some portion to cover cases of disability). But we didn't, and that's why any talk of "privatization" is pretty much DOA.
HINT: now you know why democrats despise HSA plans.

I read it and it's not bad but honestly, I can write the reason in far fewer words.
We can't do it because Americans want TODAY'S health care in the US for Euro prices and, if they got free health care but had to get what Euro gets, they'd burn Washington to the fricking ground.
All the cherry picked stats in the world can't change simple facts like the reality that there are more MRI machines in Tennessee than there are in all of Canada.
