Err...right, that wasn't even what I found problematic, but since you bring it up...
1) You completely ignore the fact that insurers also act as your bargaining middle-man with hospitals, the same hospitals that'll charge an uninsured patient who can afford to pay several times more than an insured patient whose insurance won't cover that particular procedure or stay, because the insurance company will still step in to negotiate a rate for you. So quite frankly, someone without insurance has no bargaining chips on the table against hospitals, and when you're horribly sick you're not exactly super focused on bargaining with them before you let them treat you. Insurance companies on the other hand, have actual leverage due to the number of people they cover. Where's your solution for this?
2) You proclaim that health insurance is a ponzi scheme where the extremely sick are draining a large portion of the money. Fine, so is your solution that the extremely sick should just go die? Oh, sorry, you have a chronic genetic illness, guess you're screwed because you can't afford to pay for all the meds and care you'll need to survive. And before you respond that you'd let the government handle these situations, your own blog says "The money is going to come out of somebodys pocket and its not going to be the government which has no pockets, just hands to grab from one to give to another", so even if the government helped out there it'd still end up draining our money. So I guess the extremely sick are simply SOL in Panda Bear land eh? Great solution to our healthcare cost issue: let the sick people die. Wow, I wonder why no politicians want to suggest this BRILLIANT idea. It's SO SIMPLE!
3) "Not only do they hold the people in contempt thinking them incapable of planning for their own future but the money tied up in these accounts and owned by citizens is just another chunk of money that cannot be stuffed into the voracious maw of the political influence machine."
Considering how little most Americans have saved for retirement, I'd say that there's plenty of evidence that people actually are pretty incapable of planning such things. Just because you're using evil sounding language like "in contempt" doesn't mean that people would actually have a friggin' clue how to plan for anything.
4)
Wow, that entire paragraph is supposedly not a rant, but and yet it actually suggests no actual solution to anything it mentions. So what is it exactly?
5)
Wow, I think you just came up with Medicaid as your solution in this paragraph.
6)
More "not a rant" paragraphs which seem to serve the purpose mostly of whining about how the people are evil and the government is out to try and make us all their dependents, oh, and universal healthcare will lead to doomed freeloader heaven. Yes, that's quite the well laid out and persuasive argument there, clearly not at all a rant.
Good thing the very concept of getting an MPH probably makes your blood curdle, because if you turned in this kind of nonsensical crap for your papers even the most right-wing professor would have a hard time not flunking you.
I'm not saying that I actually have an awesome solution to all our healthcare problems, but your hate-filled rants are about as counter-productive as possible. More or less your entire blog post is about how the poor and the sick are to blame, the government is out to make us all zombiefied dependents, universal healthcare will lead to the decay of our society (seriously dude?), the sick should go die, and maybe we should invent Medicaid for the poor (oh wait, I think we already implemented that part of your genius plan). Wow, who can possibly think that's just a rant.
