CNN said Americans are responsible for our health care system staying in place because they like their insurance plans.

Frida Ghitis : The public doesn't set policy - and even when Americans believe they are voting for change or for a specific policy platform they were promised, they rarely get it.

The idea that Americans could like their health care and hate the system is still not necessarily a complicated view, because the U.S. is uniquely expensive and wasteful.

Eric Liu : Powerful health care interests shower politicians with donations, fund front groups that support them, and can spend politicians into the ground any time, at will.

Liu : Lobbying groups each collect tens of millions of dollars in revenue each year , from industries that collectively generate tens or hundreds of billions in annual revenue.

This year 's election featured little conversation about potential health care reforms.
