You've made a good argument for Canada and Europe's system. Trouble is....we're talking 320 million here, not 35 million. Even worse, the US has a federal government which has an abysmal record with Medicare. Do you honestly believe it's up to the task of managing a system like Canada or Europe. Few in America have that confidence. A better solution is smart, insurance reform. If that fails, then go with single payor...not vice versa. -Greg

The government wanted to exterminate the Indians and they damn near did it. Not that that's relevant. ----------------------------------------------------- Smallpox did much of the damage. -Greg
