Who is stopping competition? Certainly not the Feds. if you are going with the "cross state lines" garbonzoos, that is up to the states, not to mention being one of the dumbest ideas of the decade.

Kind of like so many companies being registered in Delaware. So how come Delaware get to dictate rules to the other 49 states.

Congress is not lacking the will to provide universal heallthcare, they are lacking the intelligence.

John not only Romneycare goes but also the mandate that hospitals must care for the indigent. Not that I really expect Roberts and Co. to have the wit nor wisdom to realize that.
