Hilzoy on Obsidian Wings gives a reasonable post about the politics of the Swedish Plan, which is still my first choice for pragmatic and political reasons, although I do understand the free market plan as well:
"It is not impossible to get political decision-makers who can come together in crises, evaluate their options clearly, and act. It just takes a citizenry who insist on being represented by adults, media who actually inform them, and politicians who do not drive them to cynicism by abusing their trust.
Until then, though, a lot of good options will be much, much harder to implement than they would be otherwise. The Swedish model is one of them. "
