"The difference is that my position is intuitive and supported by research, whereas yours is just made up out of thin air."

Uh, no. Mine is supported by actual facts. You know, reality-type stuff.

"It is obvious that if you have a "government option" that is subsidized by the taxpayers, eventually, people are going to migrate to it."

Not obvious at all. What is it that is uniquely American that would cause such a thing? Other countries have a mix of both. Why can't we? What will happen is the government will get those people whom the insurance companies don't want. The insurance companies will just cherry pick those they are pretty sure won't get very sick. Granted, they won't make as much money as before, but they won't go out of business.
