Questions About National Health Care?

health care fraud
Traveler asked:

Many people seem to be for a national health plan that will be written by non-medical politicians and will be a monopoly on health care that limits ability to have access to medical attention not covered by the plan.
Is it possible to have our government write a plan that will not guarantee high profits to those who donated large sums to a candidate’s campaign?
Will the plan eliminate (or at least address) Medicare and Medicaid fraud?
Will the plan continue to pay the high salaries of non-medical CEO’s who own health care facilities, testing centers and treatment centers?
Will tax payers be expected to pay higher land/homeowner taxes making owning a home impossible so that non tax payers can continue to have better health coverage than those who pay taxes and own assets that must be depleted if one needs medical care?
Will our national leaders get the same coverage as everyone else if a national health plan is started? (Will legislators get the same limitations as tax payers who vote(d) for them?)
