41. Sorry Elizabeth - as much as I love you - I think the mandate is a problem. Personally I think the
only solution that provides real universal health care is a single payer system modeled on Canada's. I've lived in Canada and still have many friends there - and it is fabulous. Not without its own problems but better by far than anything private insurance can do for most of us.

We have a PPO and I can't tell you how many times I've had to fight them to pay what they're obliged to pay and how long I've had to wait for them to OK routine tests - right now I've been waiting for several weeks for an endoscopy.
