Physicians, health care providers, and citizens/residents want high quality health care at reasonable cost resulting in healthy communities.  Education and research surrounding these democratic values of quality, cost, and healthy communities have been opposed by corporate stake holders of the medical industrial complex.  These values are not being met in the US.  Due to failure to achieve these goals, the US health care system has become a troubled asset in need of a Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP).
