3. All this poll proves is that |
|
62% of the respondents are sadly deluded about how the "free" market works, and how the profit motive affects their pocketbook.
Lord people.

9. Free market is reactive. Government can be proactive |
|
This is the difference between waiting for market forces to escalate due to numerous deaths to the point that a company is force to take action vs realizing that something is dangerous and should be regulated as such before anyone is harmed.
The free market in health care is balanced on the bodies of the dead.
