Oh my. The politicians you know. I can just imagine which party they're in. If so, your ratio of good to bad doesn't surprise me.

First, as Robert said, politicians are just a tiny portion of the government. For every career politico there's thousands of regular worker bee citizens that do the day to day drudgery of keeping the machine working and for the most part don't even deal with the political part of things. Their exposure is usually having to clean up their office when some local official comes around every 6 months. Also, my exposure to government has shown me how insecure these horrible tyrants are. You should see how they scramble when an irate constituent calls in or writes a letter to the editor.

So exactly what are these "non-statist" solutions your advocates are coming up with because frankly all I ever hear from anyone not calling for universal care is just more of the same which is working oh so well. My guess is you mean just removing all constraints on free enterprise and trusting the insurance industries to stop caring about their record profits and work in our best interest.
