Just as with tricare, my choices are limited if I want to pay less, I can choose whoever I want but the more private and elite, the more it costs, simple. This is a business and the government will protect it's assets to the best of it's abilities, and we all know the government runs a ship exactly as tight as they want it. You will see, when "I just never imagined" becomes reality, this sentiment will echo every where when it come to this Health care reform bills' effectiveness. I don't have to be dramatic with the 'death panel" scare tactics, I just have to be patient and listen. I won't hear anything I didn't already know will occur, we all know it, we just would rather make lemonade, but remember it's still just sugared water and lemons in the end., just easier to swallow, kinda like kool aid.
