2. This makes me want to pull my hair out.
Since when do "We the People of the United States" have to make deals with hospitals? We are a Republic. Our legislature ought to be able to pass any law it sees fit to pass. Neither the legislature not the executive branch should have to "make a deal" with any corporation that is chartered under the laws of any of the 50 states. The states allow corporations to exists. The state should never have to bargain with corporations. NEVER.

If you need proof that our republican form of government is dying, here it is. Even with a Democratic administration, "We the People" must barter with our oligarchs.
