Most everything you have (such as a job, high income, standard of living, quality of life, ect.....) comes from a free market system, not the government. Remember, the only difference between government and a large corporation is the large corporation operates to earn profits, and the government operates to earn votes for particular candidates. Make no mistake corporations earning profits benefit you way more than a politician earning a vote. Corporations create jobs, invest profits in other ventures that eventually create even more jobs, offer us goods and services that we want, and so forth. Politicians earn your vote, and that is about it.

It still baffles me that people would actually want politicians in the US using their health care needs as a political football to kick all over the place. Your entire health care system would change frequently to whichever direction the political winds are blowing, and your taxes would go up to pay for less health care that you would receive. I just can't seem to figure out why people would trust the government over their health care.
