Well, by middle of the road, I guess I really mean don't commit to driving on the right or left shoulder before you start the car. I very much appreciate your and Katelew's willingness to listen to all the alternatives, which is all I wanted to do, so we agree! You may suspect the right answer, but I haven't taken the class and am not ready. (Teacher lingo for you :)

Let the numbercrunchers work it out-- although I tried reading a couple of posts last night full of numbers and even as I applauded them for trying, I realized they were contradicting each other. (I think it was about the costs involved in removing profit). Let the arguments begin. As I said, if you can convince me that Congress will attack the costs, which I doubt because of the strong Rx lobby and trial lawyer lobby, then single payer sounds great. I don't want the govt in charge of my care, but I don't mind a giant clearing house that also ensures everyone has some kind of care available, and we all aren't forced to accept mediocre care. That would be way too socialist for me.
