He says that you will be able to keep your health insurance if you like it, but this will eventually go away if there is a "public option" in the final plan. He says that it will be competition for the insurance companies, and if they are so good, they can handle a little competition. They can, but not from an entity, such as the government, that is able to operate at a loss for years and years. If the government runs out of money, they can use the power of force to seize more. Private businesses cannot do that, so the playing field is slanted towards the government. A "public option" will lead to complete government control of healthcare.
I am not even going to get into the horrors of government-controlled-anything in this post, but just suffice it to say that quality of healthcare will drop drastically if you put government in control of it. They cannot even properly run a simple car trade in program.
They think they will be able to silence their critics with tactics like this, but they will not be able to silence everyone... I, however, am anxiously awaiting my "re-education."
