Bro better than 80% of Americans rate their personal healthcare as postive.

so Im not sure we agree on what success is.


personally I think the American system is in serious need of fixing some very broken things. I think most of us agree on that.

that doesnt mean I want a system that puts some government employee between me and my doctor. will dry up the number of specialists that are available (google barak obama's views on that subject)

create a government option. There is NEVER a day when a government option is a good idea. It is impossible to have a level playing field for the government to compete fairly with private industry. dude, the government makes the rules!

Reform yes, stupid reform NO!
