>>By "basics" do you mean insurance basics or care basics? In other words do you mean major-medical coverage or do you mean commonly recognized care basics like PAP tests and appendectomies?<< A good question. I think you have to start with major medical as a baseline. Please understand that I'm only looking at what can be done within the framework that is currently being considered. I'd still prefer something much closer to Medicare for everybody, with supplemental plans offered by private companies.
