And how does a Presdent who uses the post office as a government agency that competes with the private sector admitting it's crappy as an example of gov./private sector competition make sense when applied to a gov. health insurance company?

I'ts not my "impression", Dell. Obama has clearly said that the majority of funding for the healthcare reform package (the parts that need funding) will come from collection of wasted money from Medicare (not Medicaid). I want to see that to believe it.

BTW, the President never said the PO was crappy (Try giving the PO, UPS and Fed Ex a regular business letter with an address on it, and see what each charges you for delivery)

The current government health insurance companies apparently do well enough, that you can't find anybody covered by them that wants to give up their coverage

Answer this for me, Dell: do you buy your own health insurance, or is your health insurance paid for by your employer, or do you have no health insurance?
