Why is the price too high?
Because there are crooked people in every chain of the system.
The wages of sin is death, like it or not.
You believe the answer is to keep feeding a corrupt system.
We believe the answer is to impose the conviction of God on the system as best we can.

You yourself said the system is broke, so why keep playing a losing game?
Look at the following list showing where the United States ranks globally in regards to it's health care system,

You mean to tell me that you believe that America can't pull off what all the countries ahead of us have pulled off and do it better??????

France came in #1. Interestingly their running 13 billion dollar defecits in their system...but it's still cheaper than the private system here in the United States where we spend at least 16% more on health care costs than they do. I guess according to you we're the Western world's biggest loosers, should throw our hands up in the air, and walk away. Get real bro.

I'm saying I know we can do better. But it's going to also take Christians jumping into the frey and advocating for the helpless and those in need because BIG money powers want to maintain their strangle hold on Americas health care system. If you want to fight the "greed"....consider that Dr. William McGuire (CEO of United Health Care) made out with over 1.7 BILLLION dollars in stock options....while an estimated 18,000 Americans died that year because they couldn't afford health insurance.
