The point is that the assumption that something that works for 30 million will scale to 400 million (assuming all other things being equal) is not a good assumption to make. (BTW, shouldn't most IT people intuitively get that one?) But the larger point is thinking it's a great idea to have the government take over price control for entire industries. It just ain't gonna work. Do you how I know? Medicare is bankrupt. And, let's not forget, Doctors will be happy as long as their rates don't change. At the end of the day they don't care if private insurance or the tax payers pay their bills since both will make the payment on their Cayenne S. But trust me on this one: on the day that ANY of this impacts doctor's pay you are going see a lobby force like you cannot believe. You think private insurance has a lot of money? Add up all the money every doctor, lab, clinic, and hospital makes in a year. The anarchist in me can't wait for public health just to watch the chaos when they try to touch Doctor's pay!
