35. A govt clinic over nothing isn't the choice for 90%

It's the risk of that kind of health care that people worry about if all payment and approval is run through the government. It's the gradual eroding of care.

Oregon has govt administrated health districts. There is one care provider in my town in order to cut costs associated with duplication of x-rays, labs, etc. Larger cities have a little bit of choice, I really don't. In order to change doctors, I have to go through a committee. I am really not the one to try to convince that there will be limited govt interference as we transitional to universal coverage because I know better.
