Good grief, if you think a government employee decides whether or not you can get a hip replacement then you don't know what you're talking about. Additionally, if you think the free-market is essential to an efficient healthcare system, well once again, you have no idea what you're talking about. 

And what the bleep does "getting information from the American people even mean?" What, you want to take a citizens poll and base our healthcare system on that? 

We should base our healthcare system on other successful models around the world...and the most successful systems in the world are single-payer.
