“Government has no incentive to improve.”

My blog is turning into the Jimmie Bise show, and frankly, I’m ok with that.

I sang his praises yesterday, and want to do so again. You’ve got to read this quote from his most recent podcast:

And look, let’s fact it. It’s not right that insurance companies right now have control of your health care. That doesn’t mean that we should put the control of your health care in the hands of the government. Insurance companies–at least you know what their motivation is. Insurance companies’ motivation is to make money. You know where they’re headed. What’s the government’s motivation to get better? What’s the govt.’s motivation to improve? There’s no motivation to improve. If the government had a motivation to improve, then social security would be earning you more than 3% a year. If the government had a motivation to improve, then soldiers at the Walter Reed Army medical center wouldn’t have had mold and mildew walls in their rooms. If the government had a motivation to improve your local department of motor vehicles wouldn’t be the pluperfect hell it is now. Government has no incentive to improve. What are they gonna do? What are you gonna do to ‘em? Once they have your health care, it’s done, bud. You’re done. And that’s what we have to avoid at all costs.
