We need a health care bill with a private option
Edited on Thu Sep-03-09 09:43 PM by AlphaCentauri
we are playing the game of the insurance companies, beging them to include a public option in the health care bill is idiotic.

How about a bill with a private option for those who don't like government administrated health care?

2. I understand that's how they do it in Germany.
People above a certain income level are allowed to opt out of the government plan and use private insurance instead if they want to.
