Government health care

President 0bama wants to make national health care quite the priority. He is using his typical scare tactics, saying that we must pass this now or else the sky will fall, the sun will burn out and all our puppies will die.
Who will pay for this 1.5 trillion dollar fiasco? Yeah, we all know who. Us.
Can anyone please answer any government program that is more efficient or costs less than any privately run program? I will give you the military, but only because private armies are illegal in the USA. Government has no competition there. Look at any, and I mean any, federal government program or office. The "rule books" they use is staggeringly huge. Take the tax code as an example. A relatively simple concept, every person and business pays taxes for the federal government, is over 9000 pages of regulations. Do we really think health care will be some easy to navigate process that will benefit us, or strangle us in red tape?
If this nationalized health care passes, the first patient to die will be the US taxpayer.
