Ummm....OK.

Truth is, RP is trying to tell me that the Government is somehow a better choice to run businesses than private corporations. I say it a load of bunk.

I don't know about the "cons" comment as Im not sure how that fits into this particular discussion.

I do know that the less we use government funds on private enterprise situations, the better off everybody is. No question about that. Obviously there are certain things that th Gov't has to be involved in for the good of all, but not sure I want them with their hands on the BILLIONS AND BILLIONS that would be involved in managing a new insurance-employmmet program. A whole new level of bureaucracy.

You want more gov't in your life? Knock yourself out. I don't and Im entitled to feel that way especially with the bottomless pits that are the CBC and gun registry to name but two.
