"Maybe we should make those databases illegal as well? Never know when some unscrupulous government employee (especially with ObamaCare looming on the horizon) will sell that data to the highest bidder ..."

Access to medical information is usually by patient consent, which is different than government ordered registries accessable to bureaucrats. If your wife or someone like her had permission to handle my medical information, she could sell it but that isn't the same as a govt bureaucrat accessing a database that contained my medical information. Will ObamaCare change that? Will there be national data banks of private medical information that bureaucrats have access to?
