6. There are always pros and cons to every issue
but I think the Medicare buy in is something that the average person can understand.

It will be much harder for Fox, Sarah Palin and others to demonize this idea, especially since Grayson wants to have the people buying in to pay the actual cost, rather than have the government subsidize the people who buy in. Grayson is just cutting out the profit that private insurers make, so the cost has to be less for Medicare buy in than it would be for private insurance.
