The fragmented American health care system is both empowered (medical entrepreneurs) and limited by the laissez faire (hands off) economics of our "free market" government. Hybrid Market-Socialist nations tend to have more top-down control over the functions & operations of the nationwide health & insurance systems. But I haven't seen a study to determine how effective they are in dealing with national emergencies like the current crisis. The article linked below says that the Obama administration had a "Pandemic Game Plan" that was canceled by the new Trump administration. That's fragmented us-vs-them politics for you. :lol:I have been thinking on how the health care system seems incomplete. — Saurabh Bondarde
