Negotiating Health-Care ! Not Easy !

President Obama Says He is "Flexible" on Offering a Public Health Plan...

A New York Times poll released on Sunday showed that a remarkable 72% of Americans support a public health care plan. President Obama said that he believes insurers are being illogical in opposing the public option, arguing that if they provide the best quality health care at an affordable price, there is no reason the government's plan should drive them out of business. However, on Tuesday, the President signaled a willingness to fore go a public option in health care reform - troubling many health care reform advocates. "The private marketplace has proved to be inadequate in providing for all citizens, and we need a public option to fill the void," Most Americans have grown distrustful of insurance companies' concern for their customers' health needs, and that showed in the New York Times' poll." !
