The big lie and I never hear them called on it

We want to move from a government patient relationship to a doctor patient relationship.

Makes me want to scream. What we have is an insurance company doctor patient relationship.

And yes I prefer a government system over a for profit system when it comes to providing healthcare

I worked for an insurance company. The first thing
They think about is how can we deny coverage
