Why government intervention, has, is and unless we make some changes for the better, will continue to drive up health care costs for us all.

This part gets to the core of the matter.
"And that brings us to the main point. What does “at no cost” mean? Is Mikulski offering to pay personally for every women’s preventive services? If so, all I can say is that it is very generous of her. But I have a feeling that that is not what she means."

There should probably be an option of some type of public work program where a person who lacks money - but who has some time - could trade some labor for their health care. And maybe a reward system for people who can manage to stay healthy.

I agree with alot of this idea

How about we figure out a way to turn some of those McMansions into Boarding Houses?

AdHom, every system has a problem with free riders.

Good thing we have a government to protect and enable the free riders. Both poor and rich alike.

There there tatu, you don't have to speak for me all the time do you?

Government is not to blame. Big government ideology is. Government should not be big enough to enable freeloaders.

That's just it. Free-loaders exist with big government, small government, and even with no government.
