My apologies. I answered your QUESTION instead of reading your mind about what you really were asking. You asked about the public option proposal--silly me for answering about the public option proposal. You wonder why people feel they can't get anywhere in conversations with you? Bob. Weave.
Since I did answer your question, you got anything to say about my answer (post 281)?

Well, me too. What controls would you need to see?
