    Never said anything about anything being bad. No matter how the pay comes I still like a government agency setting a maximum on the cost of treatments and medical items. Even in a no insurance pure open market or in a completely socialized medicine state there’s no need for a hospital to have profits greater than a grocery store aka above 1% to 3%. Although profits in a socialized medicine state aren’t quite the same since the buyer and seller are the same entity, but doesn’t stop products or services being purchased at X and sold at Y on the books.
