Re: OT: Physicians for a National Health Program

["Doug" <not@xxxxxxxx>]

The government still ends up paying?, oh well that's OK then because I
thought that the burden fell on the taxpayer, the very same group who would
pay for universal care. The point is we are already paying for the uninsured
through a very inefficient method which causes the emergency rooms to be
used as a doctors office. No matter how inefficient a government entity
administered a universal health care system, I believe it would be better
than the current system.
