the flipside, of course, is that those who don’t like medicare or are worried about its problems will say, why extend something that’s already broken?

Why indeed.

Except that it is already known the healthcare “fix” will lead to more problems. Then they will propose another “fix” that sounds quite sensible considering the trouble, and on and on tightening the noose of governmental control until it is complete.

Each minor step seeming innocuous and an answer to a real problem. Each minor step leading to new problems to which the answer is always More Government.

Eventually we have a monster like the NHS and there is no going back.
