Sorry for my ignorance…but what 3 questions are you referring to here? Thanks!
Information asymmetry is not a problem that government can solve. And, it is a problem that markets can solve. If you cannot discover what treatment to purchase, hire a professional to help you choose. This is known as “consumer reporting” or consulting and it exists in many industries where large purchases are made by individuals or organizations who are not experts in the product they are attempting to purchase.
There is absolutely nothing, not one thing, about health care that makes it different from automotive manufacture, retailing or agriculture - industries that we readily accept should be “free market.”

I already know I am an outlier, so its understandable. I just do not understand why we cant just tell people over and over “its ILLEGAL to HEAL PEOPLE without PERMISSION” until we have freedom of medicine in this country.
@Malachi: We should expand it… it’s illegal to do anything you weren’t instructed to do. The whole concept of licensing and permits is that you shouldn’t do somethign without at least asking permission or, better yet, waiting until instructed to do so. “Who asked you to do this?” A new business should only be started when some VIP decides that it needs to be started and asks someone to start it. If we allow people to just go out and do things willy-nilly, the entire social order will come crashing down!

Everything that is not prohibited is required.
