Senator Baucus,
If you're so afraid of a government sponsored health plan, why don't you give up the one that you have as a senator? Why shouldn't all Americans have the kind of insurance that you and all the other federal employees enjoy?
One reason that my wife and I left the country is that we couldn't afford U.S. health care insurance premiums after I retired (I'm too young for Medicare).
Employer sponsored health plans are a joke. What about those who are unemployed or work for a company that doesn't provide that benefit? Employees who work for companies that do have insurance often become trapped in "job lock" because private insurance premiums are prohibitive. I know. I've been there.
If private health care is so much better than a government sponsored plan, then why can't the two be allowed to compete and let the people decide? Isn't that the American way?
Get real, Senator.

Thanks for your kind words of support, Dr. Jacobson. I visited your blogsite and noticed that you have quite a variety of topics. I found the article on E coli particulary informative.
