Laus Deo

The following is an excerpt;
However, with a government run health care program you get the worst of both worlds: the third party purchase. The government will be buying something with money that is not theirs (therefore, they don't care about price) to buy something they will not personally consume (they are exempt, and, therefore, they aren't concerned a wit about quality).
What if we forced all elected officials to be a part of the health care package that they came up with for us. At least this would remove half of the "worst of both worlds" they still would not care what it cost but at least it would be coverage that was worth having. I would also be willing to bet that there would be a bipartisan rejection to this idea.
