I know you believe in the "free market" and the it will cure all ills.

So do you believe that a private free enterprise unregulated business
would provide for the needs of the citizens of the US better than the
dreaded "gov't"?

(Not to quibble that the "gov't" has the necessary requirements to be
considered a business already: revenue, customers, and products and
services it offers.)

It has profits too, but they don't go to the shareholders. They go to the
officeholders, and somehow they escape being taxed.
