You are right Doug. I just think that there will be fewer options if we go to a single payer option. If my current ins company does me wrong, then in theory, I can switch to another. If the health care price-setting-czar denies me coverage under a "public" option, I will have little recourse.
From what I've read and heard, it's the aged that are going to get the brownest end of the stick with the new plan.

Could be some truth to that. Statistics, and even worse, polls should always be taken with a grain of salt.
