Pass a bill that no one read while there are some interesting ideas in your post, you do realize the above is bs. I am tired of that. this stuff is not only available to them, it is online. if they are lazy, it is their problem (and ours). if they can take time out to give kudos to a dead golfer (Arnie) they can read.

We've been testing Medicare for 40 years. Single payer-- Medicare for all. We won't have to stall for another 40 years.

Buying insurance across state lines has the potential for insurance companies to lose money. I could buy a cheap insurance in Arkansas and then decide to come to California to have surgery where medical costs are high. Besides we have insurance companies that are allowed to sell across state lines. Why is this an issue. When there is a bill and it comes to the floor for a vote. I expect my elected rep. and his staff to read every line of the bill. That is what they have sent there to do. NOt to come and lie to me by saying that the bill proposes "death panels." THis entire health care issue can be explained in a very very very simple way. If Medicare is successful, then change the eligibility age from 65 years to zero, cut Medicare costs such as unnecessary procedures, provide incentives to doctors for preventive care instead of curing patients after they fall sick etc. etc.
