What we need is
1. NO MORE huge malpractice suits that drive up insurance costs
2. A very simple system to give medical providers awriteoff on all LEGITIMATELY needy patients. THese will need to be screened WAY better than food stamps are.
3. Citizens willing to take responsibility for their own lives.
4 Lower drug costs. That will mean tax reductions for projects researching live saving and life changing drugs. The drugs that don't always make big money.

Universal healthcare is the worst possible option. I have adult friends in the UK, Ireland, and elsewhere.. If you have a sick baby in the middle of the night, and unexplained but brutal pain, or any of the ills that befall our older people you do not want Universal Health Care.
And you definitely do not want single payer.. which is what the govt is actually pushing for from what I can see.

As for politicians.. they do not work for us in most cases. And they DID vote to EXEMPT THEMSELVES.. so there's that.
Google universal healthcare issues.. read both sides.
