I want to run a govt plan! That way, I can misprice services, and/or incur whatever costs I want to provide it. If I make money, great. If I don't, I get the taxpayer to write a check to cover the loss. I'd say that's great work if you can get it. <br> <br> If the private guy that's trying to run it can't make it work, he goes bankrupt - probably because I can under-price him. Ha ha, conservative businessman! Joke's on you, hater! <br> <br> Then, once I've driven off all the private competitors, I can kind of do whatever I want, including paying myself a lot of money, or decide who gets what coverage based on political connections. The aristocracy of the dollar replaced with the aristocracy of pull. Right on! Power to the people. Or me, you know, depending.
