I do and I don't.......I believe that we would all be a lot better off if healthcare didn't have insurance. Like College education, healthcare costs so much because the consumer is too far removed(or at least insulated) from the equation. Let a free market reign and the costs would not be so high and most would be able to afford healthcare.....and the few who couldn't would not be that big of a burden for charities to handle.

But since the reality of the world is not a free market I see no reason why the military shouldn't have insurance paid for by the people who they work for......just as in most other businesses.
