About socialized medicine,I like that answer,it's simple,to the point and accurate.--Really America has 2 choices. Either join the rest of the 'civilized' world which has good socialized medicine.--OR the US can keep sinking lower and lower and be in the same company as Banana republics and third world countries that do NOT have socialized medicine.A public option is the only way to go.What used to work in America simply does not anymore.
I am willing to pay for what you receive. I am not willing to pay private insurance companies for an empty promises. That would be like putting Enron in charge of a national energy policy. But since we'll never know what happened with Cheney behind closed doors pershaps that's what we are living under.
