THANKYOU Buddy, I'm so lousy on my computer skills I have to use my own noggin all the time to present arguments. I always just click on the posts and see if I can come up with something.

Don't Want a Public Plan? Well, What Do You Think of Medicare? 1 - I'm not a fan of Medicare either 2 - Whatever one thinks of Medicare, extending public plans to more people is a change. Someone concerned about debt or the size of government would have reason to oppose it, even if they supported Medicare (esp. if they wanted to reform Medicare to contain its growth). Someone concerned about government getting bigger would also have reason to oppose it. Someone concerned about the potential for reducing the incentive for innovation would also have reason to oppose it, whether or not they oppose Medicare.
