Lane3;

However, that support falters when people are asked to support a plan that provides coverage for all but requires everyone with insurance to “change their coverage and join a program administered by the government.”

Interesting - thanks. Soooo, the people who have the government paying their health insurance already are against everyone getting it. Boy, how do you get around that?

I've always thought we should have a 2 tiered system. Universal care that is government run. There is no doubt that their would be savings of at least 15% on the nations bill cutting out corporate profit alone. Second if patients and some doctors want something else they can add private plans and coverage. My guess is that very few would opt for the latter.
