Health Care: Eventually The Public Gets To Vote

The House Speaker wants to call the public option the consumer option. The Senate majority leaders want a public option/opt-out plan. The name is not the problem. It is the policy we don’t like. We do not want the government to run and control our health care. We want to control our own health care.

Almost every poll I see affirms that the majority of Americans do not want the public option. The Washington Post poll puzzled me until I saw that the question didn’t mention “public option” and that nearly twice as many Democrats were polled as Republicans. This caused the abnormality.

Eventually the public will get to vote on the health care issue. We just have to wait for the next elections. Then we can vote to not reelect those who supported this bill. New legislators can then vote to reverse this legislation.

Signed,
The Electorate
