So Carper wants an amendment that allows states to set up their own public option????

Heard now on Ratigan's Morning Meeting. We know what that would do, don't we? We already have a patchwork quilt of availability of health insurance and care availability. Let's not only perpetuate it but make it worse.

2. states

I was wondering when this might happen. To an extent, it makes sense; this is a big country. I�m always surprised that people on this board are comparing our healthcare with those of Europe, as healthcare varies widely among EU members, and there�s never been a similar effort to institue a NATIONAL healthcare system for all of Europe. True, if states have their say, healthcare will look different in Alabama and Massachusetts, much as they do in Germany and The Czech Republic.
