Change I Can Believe In
Over at The One's quasi governmental web site, they have launched a radical new feature - comments. They're calling it "Discussion." (I guess that's the change part.)
The first topic of "Discussion" is health care.
I'm glad they have this feature. It gives me an opportunity be a thorn - albeit a small one. I will go there and state my case in the Hope of annoying a few people and maybe even Changing a mind or two.

Simply put - that the government will take over what little bit of it that is does not already control.
Personally I like that my doctor is motivated by making money. It gives him a reason to want to keep me alive. Live people need his services. The dead, not so much.
He also has an interest in keeping me healthy. That's the service I pay for and if he's not getting it done - I will go to someone who will.
I likewise am motivated by a desire to remain alive, healthy, and in possession of my money. Thus I seek the most effective and cost effective health care.
I'll be sure to update you if there is any response.Simply put - that the government will take over what little bit of it that is does not already control.
