4. I am in favor of the government taking over the health insurance industry.
Let the delivery system (doctors, nurses, etc) do what they do best.

The devil is the insurance industry.

Eliminate "the money changers in the temple".

5. I'm with you.
There are some things that big government does extremely well.
Health Insurance is one of them.
Give everybody the choice of buying their Health Insurance from Big Government.

6. If wanting to live is wrong, I don't want to be right.
We could be saving 40,000 lives a day if we would just say every American has the right to health care. Don't we all have a right to life? Or is that just fetuses, that get that?

7. It seems like a single-payer system

would eliminate all these petty issues that they're squabbling about. Sure, a lot of insurance company employees would be out of work, but maybe they could get federal jobs. :evilgrin: And that guy that's been making $57,000 an hour? I think he doesn't need any more money.
