There’s a decent small-c conservative argument that says having Medicare as a market competitor might be a better system - at least at first - because if it goes tits up, at least we still have the, um, (no pun intended) pre-existing system. There’s also the question of what happens to all those people who work for health insurance companies when their jobs are rendered obsolete.

Personally, I tend to trust people to make decisions as to what is best for them in their own lives, which is why I favor a public option.

If they had perfect information and equal access to all options.
