The first problem we have is the cost of medical malpractice. Maybe if we put a cap on lawsuits and the lazyass people that file for them unjustly. The prices could be less.

Sorry, but that wouldn't work. Cost of living is different from one place to the other. Hawaii costs more than Illinois because everything is imported. Same goes for every other state/city in the US. Different circumstances dictate the cost in each locality. One example would be to compare the price and quality of an apartment in New York to one Phoenix. The amount of money in a location helps influence prices as well. Which is evident in the apartment scenario.

I like this idea.
The AMA would never let it happen. You need to do to the doctors what Sarbanes Oxley did to the Accounting Profession. Take away the right to self regulate.
Doctors cannot be trusted becuse they constantly have a conflcit of interest in everything they do.

And these are the same folks economist are saying put a failed stimulus together...
“Despite administration claims, the stimulus package has created or saved few jobs,” said University of Maryland economist Peter Morici. “This is best seen in the absolute absence of growth in state and local government employment.”
“The stimulus package was poorly conceived. Not enough is devoted to hard projects, and little of the spending will stimulate permanent growth,” Morici said last week in his latest economic analysis.
The same view can be found at the conservative Hoover Institution on the Stanford University campus.
“The end of the recession is still months away, but it is increasingly clear the stimulus package was a serious mistake. To date, it has had no identifiable beneficial impact on the economy,” Stanford economist John Cogan told me.

Sounds great. I remember when price controls were applied to gas in the '70s. It produced an instant shortage. Whenever government tries to artificially control the market, bad things happen.

How about we just let the laws of supply and demand work out the price. While we're at it, why don't we get government completely out of the healthcare industry, that will definitely lower prices.
