Healthcare 'Debate' Dominated by Shouting and Lobbies

The "Public Option" is saying everyone MUST have health care, even if it goes against your religious beliefs, which it does in some conditions.
If the government becomes the sole source of medical care, which seems the intent, then they will become the sole purchaser of drugs and they can tell the insurance companies what they will pay for a drug,whether it there is sufficient profit margin or not. Drug companies will stop making drugs if the price does not provide enough income. This is why we did not have flu vaccine a few years ago.
