i'm critical of some of the changes made, yes. but i've said all along that they needed to fix things-my cynicism comes in on how well this system will work, and how it will be paid for when you have private companies still needing to turn a profit. seems making it non-profit would be infinitely helpul, which is why i want/advocate single payer. but i'm not sure how you're reading all of the above into what i've written. i thought i was making a point about someone buying his own insurance and that at his age, it's very much affordable. as for whether he WILL develop issues, he may or may not. nothing is a given in this world.
