when you need 2 minute ads all over daytime teevee to explain to people that they need to cover their asses when they go on medicare, that is sorta what most people envision when they think of govt run healthcare.

i know a lot of people are very satisfied, but i wonder how many of those people had insurance before they hit 65. i've had good insurance almost my entire life. i do recognize that i had nothing to do w picking out plans in the past. the company admins did that, mostly.
but there were also usually choices, hmo's, ppo's, a couple companies. none of those were bad choices, tho. none glaringly different from another.
like all other ins. car, home owners, whatevs. in none of them can you pick a top level plan and find yourself screwn.
