We're already there. And "government systems" didn't cause it.

Put Fram in charge.
What we're currently seeing is the inevitable result of ignoring Fram's warning, "You can pay me now, or you can pay me later."
We cut back on college funding; now young doctors can't afford to practice primary care. We let public hospitals be privatized; now we're short of beds and prices are rising. We allow drug advertising on television and gave away patent rights to drugs researched & developed with NIH money; now the drug corporations rake in billions which could have been allocated to patient care. We allow corporations to make campaign contributions; now members of Congress work for the insurance cartel instead of constituents.
