4. This is not what she thinks

She thinks medicare is a failure. She thinks Obamacare is a failure. So government single payer (which I agree in as says my original post) is a bust according to her. But so isn't the current corporate, insurance federal mandate system. At this point one might conclude Carly's option is a health care system that has no regulation, no government mandate, and no single payer. She wants a totally market based system like say 1850s. Read what she says. Obamacare isn't perfect so we throw it out, medicare isn't perfect so we throw it out... what's left but nothing. That's her plan-nothing. If it fits your business model then hey your employer might help you out, but if it don't your on your own. Deep thinking there.

I agree with you when you think of health care like maternity leave as a social issue that need government involvement and programs her thoughts of it as a business burden seem sick. We'd be better off transitioning to a single payer system, but in know way does she agree with us on this. Just read her thoughts on that and it is very clear.
