Makes no sense any other way. You create an "insurance" Co to compete with private Co's. The public Co enjoys full financial and political support form the Government, and in time "outcompetes" private companies and puts them out of business.

It makes sense as a demonstration project if you think that the public option may fail to compete, which I think is likely. If it does, then we've evidence to beat down the nationalization fantasy.

And if it doesn't, then "they" were right and you and I were wrong.
