> Price discovery requires pricing some people out of the market. Period. There is no "free market" healthcare system that can or ever will deliver required health services to everyone.
There is no economic system that can deliver all of the health care to everyone who wants it.

Desire for health care is much less limited.
The question is not whether to give everyone what they want, but instead how to imperfectly ration what we have.
