So you'll decrease costs by moving forward with more public intervention... the very reason why costs are so high.
What Bond is saying is that increase public spending/intervention has shown to do nothing but increase costs exponentially. Now there are a lot of lovely assumptions being made by those that are for public healthcare, most saying that they'll lower costs... but understand that there is no evidence that government intervention has ever done anything but increase costs and waste.
Meanwhile, evidence shows costs were lower per capita when the individual controlled most of their healthcare spending.
Now will it work this time? Well, thats what proponents of socialization have been hoping for 100 years... It hasn't worked out yet, and I have yet to see a reason to believe it will now.
