I don't see anyone's pref for quality being eliminated at all. If you got the money, you can still buy whatever service you want.
Are you serious that you believe government agencies sit around big tables and actually brainstorm how they can eliminate 'quality' from the medical system? If you are serious, then you are bonkers. You need to buy some 'quality' mental services before your condition becomes permanent.

Bureaucrats may be heartless, in that they cannot be concerned with any one individual's wellfare over another's, but they aren't sociopathic monsters. Typically, they try to balance service provided with cost incurred. This is not freakin' easy. And many folks hired to do this job simply aren't up to it. Pity.
I do not favor a socialist form of government, personally, but I see nothing wrong in the people voting to have a national health program, if that is what they want.
If it works, and
if it costs less then the stupid morass we're stuck with now,
what's your beef???
If it's the word "
socialism", then don't use it!
Call it "healthism" or "george" for all I care.
