The libertarian concept of the above is built on the premise that insurance is like any other product...and it is not.
And that there should not be a tax-funded health safety net (I assume he opposes Medicare/Medicaid, SCHIP, welfare, food stamps, social security, etc) along with tax simplification and that will make a more efficient and "fair" system.
And numbers 9 and 10 are contradictory....9) calls for dedregulated free market..and that it will increase competition..and it wont, it will allow insurance companies to shop around the least regulated state and operate out of that state, but sell nationally....but 10)state-focused while recognizing the need for centralized regulations, which is what the Senate bill does.
A collection of libertarian talking points and contradictory solutions. Not very well thought out, IMO.

Oh..and, btw, it starts with a biased, non-objective opinion.
