I googled it, and it's actually a VA style, not medicare style, health care plan. Good idea. I say expand all the VA hospitals, have the gov buy out all health care facilities, and truly run it like a single payor system, a large VA system, and everybody would get the best care, for free. HR676 is really not a medicare plan.

And only let the banks charge us 6%. What a great idea. And make it stay that way for a long time. The banks would really learn a good lesson.

Yeah, It wouldn't be long before 99% of all students would be scoring 1400's on SAT's, we could be self sufficient on energy, and everybody could go to work by hi-speed rail. No more traffic jams, no parking issues, energy conservation, there are a alot of benefits.

I think you hit the nail on the head. What an efficient way to deal with our enemies. Do you know if the US gov has ever seriously considered this?
