    The easiest would be to introduce universal health care for free."

    LUNACY! There is no such thing as 'free' health care. There is a $2 trillion health care system and govt over-controls and pays for most of it and taxes people for it. Further socializing healthcare only hurts people more, restricting choices and raising costs unwisely.

    What we need is to liberate the healthcare system. End mandates, end regulations that make health care expensive, end lawsuits that create defensive medicine, end rules that forbid barebones health insurance, end the subsidies that create more 3rd party payers than needed. Allow importation of drugs. Allow qualified RN nurses to give basic prescriptions so a doctors visit isnt needed for a child's sniffles. We need to have prices posted so people dont make insurers and govt pay inflated amounts for care. We need online health records. Overall, we need less health insurance and less govt dictation, and more direct payment and consumer choice, control and direction in healthcare.

    Do all those things and the cost of the $2 trillion in healthcare will fall by 30-50%. With the money saved, you can plug any gaps in coverage (which are pretty small).

    Alas, Obama and the Democrats will take us in the absolute wrong direction. there.
