This is a great video by former Labor Secretary Robert Reich.
He explains what a public option for healthcare coverage really means for working people.
It is an OPTION. Individuals can choose to take this OPTION, or use their exising or another healthcare plan as they do now.
We can't let the insurance companies decide who gets care and who doesn't.

This is SO true.
There's nothing wrong with having another affordable option.
If the insurance companies consider it a threat, then there's probably something going on there........
Ralph,
Private insurance has a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. As with all change, people fight it and then learn to work with it.
