isn't there more power and money to be gained keeping the system we have in place?

Not for the politicians.

The power part is in the dependence of the voters on the government.

As far as money is concerned, when the government controls all of the health care system, deciding how resources are allocated, do you think donations from the health care industry (what will be left of it) will go up or down? As I've said before, if you think the military-industrial complex is inbred, wait until you see the health-industrial complex.

Last I looked the health insurance cartel sends a lot of money to the Democrats as well.

It's been running about 60-40 in favor of Republicans up until 2006. It may change in 2007. Most industries and businesses tend to donate to whatever party is running things at the moment.
