You are correct. I never said, or intended to say, capitalism was the problem.

For example, waste is estimated to account for 25% of healthcare costs. I've worked with with hospitals, and they do things incredibly inefficiently due to all sorts of bureaucratic and political nonsense. There's a massive amount of resistance to change. I believe they're allowed to get away with it primarily because hospitals generally aren't allowed to fail. I'm not arguing we need to close up hospitals, but something needs to change there to encourage improvement.
