Peter, I don't think it's a question about YOU and ME. I'm pretty old now and I could probably do O.K. if they eliminated Social Security and Medicare and all the other stuff TOMORROW. I don't think I'd want to go OUTSIDE though..cause I'd know that a LOT of people out there would be in a pretty foul mood. As far as healthcare, it's not really a question of who can make better decisions about their own healthcare. It's a question of whether Companies can "afford" to continue offering the benefits they need to offer in order to attract the employees they want and need in order to stay competitive. It's a question of whether the poorer people in this country will have access to healthcare or just be forced to wait until they need emergency care and then the rest of us will get the bill.
