We’re a great country of 350MM people.
Surely we have one more Kennedy assassination in us. Just one. For the gipper.

Well, I think the "free market" has always been a joke when it comes to health care, so I'm not too concerned with putting out feelers for this sort of thing. Of course it would come down to the specifics of what sort of patents they'd go after, whether there would be compensation to the company that owns them, etc. But in principle, a violation of free market principles in health care is a violation of something that doesn't actually exist.

It seems to me that the only real thing that differentiates different health-care systems is which parts suck.
So, you can choose whether you prefer horrendously high premiums, enormously long waiting lists, inability to find a GP, etc. etc.
Hopefully not all of the above, unless you live somewhere really bad.
