The whole "Government's are inefficient" argument against health care is [censored] when its arguing for the status quo. After a year and a half of living here in the States, I've seen first hand the inefficient bureaucracy that exists. Referalls on top of Prescriptions, Pre-certification forms, tons of paper work that just exists to give Insurance companies an out to avoid paying for treatments.

It would be extremely difficult for the Government to be more inefficient then the current system. Now you could make the argument that a truly 'free market' system might be more efficient, but thats unlikely to happen anytime soon. (Nor do I want it to happen).
