We are allowed to disagree and there is nothing wrong with that. However, if you trust someone to make decisions on YOUR behalf that are going to cut into THEIR profit margins, well, that is your choice. I'll take my chances with a government option and then watch those greedy CEOs try to actually be competitive and then cheer as their multi-million dollar homes go into foreclosure.
As I said, I will trust Castro with my life before I will trust Obama or McCain or anyone of the politicians that call Washington their second home.
At least as long as there are greedy CEO's out there, I have the ability to change my policy to a different company if the one I am using doesn't satisfy my need. Putting all my eggs in the only basket out there is a foolish thing to do... very foolish indeed.
And yes, we are allowed to disagree and it is a pleasure to discuss things with some of the sane left wingers.

SUre you have choices, unless you happen to live in one of those states where ONE insurance company provides 90% of the policies. Let's see these big insurance companies compete against a public option. Just imagine how many lower cost choices you would have then!
Oh, and don't you dare attempt to lump me in with left wingers. If you do, then you haven't read nor heard a single one of my posts.
Yank,
Ya lean left and ya know it and there ain't a damned thing wrong with that and I said you were one of the sane ones of which there are many. However, I meant no slam upon you at all.
The plans congress have been trying to force down our throats will eliminate private insurance. Any "private" insurance company that survives the first five years, will end up being puppets of the government collecting the scraps that the government drops on the floor.
