Hello Governor:
This bill is NOT, as you claim, "socialized medicine" or "government-run healthcare." These are knee-jerk rightwing buzzwords and you should know better. Under the plan, doctors and hospitals will remain totally free agents, and patients will have the choice of whatever providers they want.
We know you had a bad impression of the "socialism" you grew up with in Europe, but going to the other extreme is not the answer. Some things are best done by business, some by government, and business has failed miserably at insuring our health. Under SB 840 you (and your successors) will appoint competent, honest people to run the new system (with approval of the legislature) and Californian's health will no longer be at the mercy of profit-driven, unaccountable corportations.
