KT, you mention drug companies and AMA as the fear mongers of U.S. universal health care. I thought it was the drug companies and health insurance industry that was scaring everyone. Oh, yeah, and the notion of 'liberty.' In some crazed way, many workers are concerned that they will lose some sort of choice regarding health care.

Kuehl's universal plan for California absolutely increases choice, while completely providing for elderly, in fact, every resident...but eliminates insurance companies (big yea) and slams pharmaceuticals by ordering bulk and jumping out of the 'payment for experiments' or however one wants to justify the excessive cost for drugs in the U.S. I thought the AMA was pretty quiet, so what is their political position?

Happy 2008!
