Facts are immaterial, everyone believes what they want to believe

and they usually find ample supporting information.

1. Trade off - would your SPHC trade off be better or worse than a "slight" tax increase with a rebate applicable to a private carrier premium? (theory of competition)

2. SPHC in all major nations - They work but how well do they work and what would we have to give up that the people in those nations have never had. Surely we can find a way to require health care without the government being the provider.

3. Supplemental for the wealthy and semi-wealthy - I believe that a SPHC system with supplemental will eventually result in a longer life expectancy for the privileged and a declining life expectancy for the less privileged.

4. Medicare SPHC - not so, mine is with United Health Care, and there is BCBS, Humana ETAL. Not supplemental,just a zero additional premium plan paid by my part B premium, covering medical and prescriptions with reasonable co pay and max oop.

It is much better than SPHC Medicare that requires a supplemental prescription rider.
