Reading comments below.Trusting there's not much debate that USA's healthcare costs are higher then most of the western world.

Wouldn't it be better to cut out the middle man ( insurance companies ) like most developed countries, and put the money given to investors, back into the healthcare system, for cheaper costs and for the greater good, since you pay for it no matter what ?
