Sadly, even after every screwup they make, people still fail to see just how inept and pathetic the government really is.

You'd prefer to trust your health to a corporation motivated by maximizing shareholder value rather than the government? Do you think the fire department and police service should be privatized too?
I'm absolutely NOT an anti-business hippy communist, but I don't want any of those essential services run by a private for-profit company.
Public health authorities are accountable to the government which is in turn held accountable to the voters. Private insurance providers are accountable to their board of directors and share holders.
