Good question. Its needing to appeal (and submit) to authority to get what I think is best for myself that I have a problem with. The financial consideration is actually not that important to me, but I think it is a problem that arises when these kinds of systems are put in place. I think that people who may disagree that I should be the "soverign of my body" might agree with the other negative conseqences, like the financial conflict of interest.

I *suppose* I would be considered a libertarian, but I can't get behind the Libertarian (capital L) party. For one thing, I think the society should see to the education of its people. There are many other specific reasons. The big-L Libertarians tend to be a bit distant from what one might call "Jeffersonian liberalism" or "classical liberalism" ala David Hume, which I think is spot on.
