>> Right...and early data points suggest nothing of the sort of "train wreck" you and all the ill wishers been prognosticating....that's all.

The term "train wreck" was used in regard to the incompetence of the implementation by multiple Democrats. But the most telling comment was from Jay Rockefeller who referred to the ACA as "beyond comprehension".

My comments are at least informed -- I've spent 20 years working with Part B portion of the health care finance system. Yours are based on some kind of irrational "faith" in a government that has, time and again, failed to deliver on its commitments. You see the difference?

I go into these things analytically and purely based on logic, where you're looking at it solely from a partisan viewpoint. I've seen government take on these tasks year after year and fail to deliver, while private enterprise is consistently successful. You are blinded by a commitment to finding a government solution.

And I ALWAYS evaluate things in terms of cost vs. benefit, while you consistently look at benefit without considering cost. Your way of looking at it just doesn't make any sense, because cost is always a factor. And government ALWAYS is the least productive, more expensive alternative. You're free to show me how I'm wrong if you wish.
