I like this post quite a bit. I don't know what to think, maybe they don't want to risk the fallout if a plan they push fails? Using a tv analogy, the Democrats have the remote. They could turn the channel to anything they want, but they want to compromise and we will all end up watching reruns of Full House. I say turn the tv to what YOU want and if somebody hates it they can come try and get the remote. Otherwise, fuckem.
economies of scale- u guys should do it cheaper. and not ever system is similar in the so called "socialized democracies". for instance- here in soviet canuckistan (pat buchanan's title for canada)- our doctors, hospitals are private, they bill the govt directly and us (the citizen's) receive treatment irrespective of how big our bank acct is.
