BTW I don't think a public option is all that drastic.

I don't either. We already have a couple of public systems. One of the points made in that piece was about the extension of Medicare to those 55-65 I can see that as quite reasonable. That's a tough time period in people's lives--you're just starting to need more medical care but you may have lost your job and have trouble finding a new one because of age. Trying to hang on until age 65 to get treatment is a really sorry state of affairs.
