Boy, you sure know how to fire up an ex-Albertan :-)  The gov't has no
business selling car insurance. Car insurance, like a car, is a luxury
item, and should be dealt with by private industry. Medical care is not.
Most of your arguments *seem* (I don't want to put words in your mouth here)
to reflect an attitude that medical care is a business venture. I maintain
that it isn't, and therefore should not be operated as such.

I do agree that there are people out there who are very over paid and should
be willing to take a cut. (I sure did when I started this job :-)
