If everyone thinks this public option is such a wonderful idea, let's try it out.

The single biggest employer in the US is her government. By and large there are many private health care plans available to them.

Let's run a pilot program and put all those people through the "exchange" and put them on the public option. As the Federal Gov'd CEO, Obama can do this without the need of Congressional Legislation, only with the stroke of a pen.

So let's see just how well the Public Option is supposed to work.

That wouldn't even be an accurate pilot program of what is being offered so that is not a viable option.

neither is comparing us to canada or france, but you guys seem to think that's a valid comparison.

Tell me, why is that not a valid option or an accurate pilot program? what is so wrong with it besides you not liking it? how about a reason or logical argument here...
