I really don't know but healthcare is for sure not a free market due to the many interventions from the state.
(Btw. I don't know if more or less state regulations benefit the patients and/ or the society more.)

It is definitely not pure capitalism in play here: The federal health department fixes the price for both brands and generics – the latter has to be priced at least 20% below the brand product for consumers to be reimbursed by their insurance company. Every few years, the government revisits the price difference, and typically adjusts the price downwards in a move to lower healthcare costs.

Die Grundversorgung der Bürger mit Lebenswichtigen Güttern sollte nicht alleine vom freien Markt abhängen. (Strombörse, Einkauf von Erdgas etc.). Gerade erneuerbare Energien können dezentral zur Autarkie eines Gebietes beitragen.

Hat mich an Barbara Salesch, Alexander Holt etc. erinnert.
