Freedom of choice
There are plenty of natural, effective, cheap methods of healing that exist, but interest groups (e.g. big pharma) block us from finding out or accessing them. I propose that everyone have the right to choose any and all methods, and that NO method be restricted or blocked in any way. If true freedom is given, then those methods that work best would very naturally come out on top, by people "voting with their feet" and those that are "fake" or which cause too many side effects, etc. will not be used and will die out naturally. (How everyone will afford health care is another topic).

It's like the joke about how many psychiatrists does it take to change a light bulb? Only one! But the light bulb has to WANT to change....
People don't want to walk and exercise to reduce their weight, which causes their diabetes, and systemic inflammation, and joint pain, and sleep apnea, and.... People don't want to cook real food because it takes time and "doesn't taste as good" as McDonalds (not to mention the COST of real food)... People don't want to brush and floss their teeth, because their favorite TV show is on right after their great dinner, and they can't be bothered. It goes on and on. Much of our illness is self-derived, and society-reinforced.
