>>Maybe it wouldn't happen. Dunno. I'm mostly trying to convey that it isn't some evil notion from the party of "no" to be dismissed out of hand based on the source. There is a legitimate basis for this an many other sincere alternatives being offered.<<

I'm not dismissing the idea because of the source. I'm questioning it because I don't think it's a good idea, for a number of reasons. The two main reasons are that I don't think it will result in lower prices for insurance, and I think it would actually make billing more complicated for healthcare providers.

I'm perfectly happy to entertain ideas about pretty much anything, regardless of the source. A good idea is a good idea. If the Republicans come up with some, I'll be among the first to climb aboard their bandwagon.

At this point, that seems only slightly less likely than the Democrats coming up with any.
