re: #686 Obdicut

To me, the public option isn’t ‘leftist’, but simply pragmatic. Health insurance is a naturally broken market, and relying on free-market solutions in a naturally broken market is never going to work. It only leads to hyper-regulation.

Tax proposals on banks being ‘leftist’— sure, I don’t really know how to evaluate that, but I’ll accept it. That’s still far from heading off into the left-hand side of the ditch, to me.

Why do you say the market is naturally broken?
