Wow, this puts things in perspective!

Marc's Notes:

The term "free market" conjures up all sort of images in people's minds,
from bad to good. Many know it for what it is: people buying and selling
between themselves, arriving at an agreement much like you do when you
contract a guy to paint your house or mow your lawn.

But in many the term free market spawns images of greedy corporations
gouging the lesser man of his paycheck all the while making obscene profits
over and above what would be deemed fair by any reasonable measure.

Truth be told the free market is nothing more then the first description:
two parties agreeing to do a deal with the price set in agreement by both.

The free market may not be perfect but it is the best method for producing
things in the cheapest fashion possible. If price is not agreed upon, the
sale does not take place. If a monopoly exists and price gouging arises, new
competitors enter the market to garner profits and the price then comes down
again. Shortages and surpluses are addressed by supply and demand pressures
and prices adjust accordingly.

The free market is in essence people buying and selling things as they
desire. The simplest vision is to imagine a farmers market on a Saturday
morning. The worlds businesses operate in much the same way except on a much
grander scale.

What the free market does is produce things at the lowest possible cost, and
no other method will produce an item cheaper. Because of this reality, a
central government cannot by the very definition of the way a free market
operates make anything more "affordable". Since the free market produces the
lowest cost, any other method produces a higher cost.

Whether a proposal by a government (such as healthcare) is adorned in fancy
terms like "affordable" and under a feel-good veil of compassion, the fact
remains that governments cannot make anything "more affordable".

In fact governments are the worst administrator of programs, as there is no
competition to government such as there is in every other system of product
creation.

Just look at the businesses the government operates. Amtrak loses billions a
year as does the US Postal Service. Meanwhile the military is the biggest
consumer of gasoline in the world and consumes billions of dollars shuttling
iron and gunpowder back and forth between the world's ports. The list of
government boondoggles goes on and on.

Government spending is badly administered by people who have no "skin" in
the game. There is no competition to government to force it to spend
thriftily. Government waste is a widely and accepted truth and for good
reason. It has no private owners who demand profits. Government operates
without a profit motive and it's this profit motive which curtails wasteful
spending in private industry. Put simply, the government could burn money
and still operate. In fact it's the only entity that can.

Government can subsidize programs but every penny it spends in subsidies
must first be taken (in the form or taxes or levies) from the very
population the program is trying to make affordable.

How can low rates be touted if the people first paid for those rates in
previous taxes?

The very notion of "affordable' anything administered by government and
supposedly at a lower cost than the private sector is preposterous at best.

That some belief it to be so does not make it so.

America will find this reality in a few years time as the Affordable
Healthcare Act unfolds. Even with subsidies, our healthcare costs will
skyrocket, the quality of care will decrease and the taxes to pay for it all
will further bleed the pocket books of an already struggling populace.
