> I have always been in favor of doing away with Medicaid in most cases for healthy enough individuals, and helping families pay for insurance. I'm rather skeptical of the ability of government to provide decent services in an efficient manner.
>Medicare is far more efficient than private insurance. The latter spends close to 40% of revenues on administration, advertising, public relations and related functions. Medicare spends 93% of its budget on services. The truism that private business is more efficient than government is false. It's a scam to make people distrust government.
