Giving insurance companies a seat at the table when making the bills seems pretty half assed to me, but I’m not an American. Maybe your healthcare system is secretly awesome.

Yeah it's a shit system. I'm well aware of that. No one with a functioning brain thinks we have a good system.

Everything stems from our inability to keep money out of politics. They lobby with billions of dollars in bribes. They own legislators. You can literally buy votes in Congress for under $10k. Even if you don't give them a seat at the table, they're at the table. I'd rather we deal with their bullshit face to face rather than through shadow campaigns of influence.
