The whole idea of a "government takeover" doesnt sit well with me, as I believe that less government=better government.
I think we should be able to choose our own doctors and our own plans.
I think Obama is quickly fucking up America, in a very general sense. Money is a big issue, and he seems to throw it around way too easily.

Insurance, by definition, means that you are paying for someone else's health, and vice versa.
The proposed health care reform doesn't involve a "government takeover," nor does it preclude anyone from choosing a doctor or a plan.
In fact, this is one of those interesting things, where people proclaim to be against the healthcare reform if asked in general terms, but mostly for it when people actually learn what is involved in the proposal:

Page 9 shows that the a good chunk of the people have no idea of what is in the bill.
