since i think most people. basically, want it. i think since the gov't would be taking over the insurance system, it would take over the tort system as well (arbitration, not litigation). it probably would work better for most, but not all. i also think that it would probably be a floor-level health care system, better than we have now, but not boutique health care with very expensive tests, transplants and such. it's something none of us really know about and i'm looking forward to what OBAMA promised, a symposium on C-SPAN determining what it should be (including insurance people, hospital people, doctors, foreign administrators, pharma all concerned people - it's a Big Problem and needs Big Ed)
