As such things go, we have things pretty good right now. The system is deeply imperfect, but remains better than the cluster* of the British NHS...or the Canadian version (How many Americans head north for "better health care" vs how many Canadians head south for better/timely/available healthcare?
Meanwhile, you have Canadian health care sorts advising against their path, and predicting its' near term collapse.
That, to me, indicates tweaking our system is probably a better solution than attempting wholesale reform....
Not unlike cooking some of the worlds *really good* dishes, the dish is edible precisely as long as you are nowhere near being in eyesight of the preparation. Politics are much the same - messy and disgusting in process, particularly if done in public.
I figure open government and public participation is worth the stench - and is certainly no worse than the last eight years with Code Pink and angry political participation from the other side of the spectrum. Frankly, by all appearances, it seems more polite than the Code Pink crowd...
Sauce for the goose, after all...
