I would support a public plan if they left the private sector alone. Government telling the energy companies in your state how much money they are allowed to make is ludicrous. That is not the role of government. I agree a public option may make for better competition in the private sector but it depends on how effective the public option is. If it's anything like medicaid then no chance.
