That's the thing with buisness and capitalism, the system works in such a way that you have to play a certain game to truly profit financially.

That's not pure capitalism. That's crony capitalism where the lobbyist with the most cash and whose values are most in line with the current administration influences policy decisions that increase central regulation on business, thereby favoring the business model of the crony.

This is what we're facing in health care- as Jason has already stated: the problem is excessive centralized authority over the industry.
