Anyway, there is no such thing as THE government, just as there are no THE
(name
any group here). You are stereotyping. And, there is no "Obamacare". What
Obmama did, to the consternation of liberals, was stay out of the details and
encourage the Congress to compromise and develop the plan. That's why your
government will continue to be banned from negotiating drug prices for
Medicare
Part D and there is no public option in the current new law. It is NOT
Obama's
plan.

Of course their is THE government. It is pretty much everything done
under the ageis of legislation. BTW: While MCare itself can't negotiate,
each of the insurance companies that deal with Part D can and do. Most
get the same discounts for D as for their regular customers. I haven't
seen anything that shows anything but less costly medication.

Additionally, I would like you to say with complete honesty that when and if
you
ever turn 65, you will never sign up for Medicare for the remainder of your
life. After all, you want no involvement of the government in your medical
care.
Thanks for making the point. Mcare is bankrupt, pays about 60
cents for every dollar paid for by The Evil Insurance Companies, has so
many big holes in coverage that people have to spend large sums of money
in supplemental insurance, and the less pay is causing many docs to
restrict the number of patients if they don't just flat out refuse to
take them. What's not to love.
