11. Short sightedness

leads to so many limits.

I disagree. I don't think mandating private, for-profit insurance is a step forward when it comes to getting everyone the care they need.

But then, I've had private, for-profit insurance for 3 decades now, and have never been able to afford all the care I needed.
