>We have the finest health care system in the world.

Based on what metrics?

>We all want it cheaper, but I find it amusing those that believe a govt run health care system will be this utopia the govt has never been able to produce.

Who's thinking about a utopia? Better and cheaper than what we have would suffice.

>Would you want Dodd, Schumer, Frank, Geitner making medical decisions for you?

No, they're not doctors. Howard Dean, on the other hand...

>And no, I'll never accept the idea that the national health care committee will be headed up by some politician that doesn't exist today, and ran by brilliant competent public employees who aren't running around digging up dirt on Joe the plumber all day while they're surfing the Internet.

Better than having it run by a whole bunch of companies who only think about their bottom lines.

You may not believe it, but there are plenty of government agencies that work just fine. The DMV does work, as does the postal service, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security...

>You mother is a rare exception, I bet she can give you a list of losers she works with.

I can give you a list of losers I've worked with. I'm sure you can give me one too, as can everyone else here. So what?
