Because even with the headache private insurance has been, the government option will most certainly be worse.Most of the people who say they are satisfied with their health insurance have never actually needed it. Just wait until you get a major illness, THEN see how much you like your insurance. Granted, it's much better if you have it through your employer. Individual insurers (like the plan I have) are downright despicable in their unethical business practices.
That's why arguments that a public option will put private insurers out of business are totally lost on me. Why should I care? Why shouldn't I celebrate their demise?
If you don't believe me, ask anyone who has dealt with the INS/CIS recently.
