AN ADDITIONAL OPTION: Kessler and Taylor: Medicare Reform—Obama vs. Ryan - WSJ.com
One big problem with Medicare (as is typical of almost all liberal structured plans) is that it is full of mandates.
A big problem in health insurance in the US should be to have two choices - (1) the liberal approach with lots of mandates (i.e. government is taking care of you); and (2) a totally unregulated set of private plans (i.e. the individual needs to know what he/she is buying).
My guess is that option 2 would make affordable insurance available to a great number of people. Likewise, the mandate option 1 would start costing more.
But, at least individuals would have a choice and be able to get what they want to pay for (of course, Obama and the Democrats want those with benefits to get someone else to pay for them).
