1. Frankly, I'm pleased the administration isn't going in that direction...
...but it might have been politically wise to have them at the table.

5. No, because I don't believe single-payer is the best solution.
I'd much rather see a program like FEHBP expanded to cover everybody.

2. Yes, we have two Republican parties when it comes to healthcare.
