Policy Planner: Don't worry your non-degreed head about the details. They will change to be what we want, anyway. The important thing is that everyone gets an equal share of the doctors, no matter how little.
We have a huge backlog of scientific management theories that we are itching to try out and refine in the real world. On our cocktail napkins, we find savings of 60%. None of our early employers wanted to listen to us, but they sure will listen to us now.
If we don't get it right at first, we will try and try again until it all works great, no matter how long it takes. The sweet, simple, misguided public deserves nothing less.

And, here is some more description of the people who sacrifice their entire beings in order to lead us to nirvanna.
Leading The People
==========
They have a solution that will work if we would only stop arguing and agree with them.
They may need to omit some information about the new arrangements and what these will cost. They observe that ordinary people do not think well enough to make decisions in their own long-term best interest.
Dissenters are either uninformed or selfish. There is no need to argue about the specific meanings of words. The good of the society justifies telling some lies, if it comes to that.
The solution requires that we all pitch in and not be greedy. The people with the most resources will put their extra income or property into the pot.
They will modify or replace the solution if it doesn't work. They will design a new solution the same way they designed the first solution, through thought, research, and discussion among themselves. Further solutions may require more resources.

Hi Throckmorton - Would it be alright if I sent this out via e-mail? I am sure it would catch on... like WILDFIRE.
This is so disturbing/alarming and just plain wrong!
Why do they have to be in out bank accounts? To see what we qualify for or where we are forced to participate?
You know I could get real wordy here but it speaks for itself.
it is disturbing to me as a patient and a free American... but you docs have the added whammy of paying more taxes, more control over you and less control regarding your patients, etc.
It just has to get better.
the thing that is UNFATHOMABLE to me... is that they are voting for this monster WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT IS IN IT AND THE CONSEQUENCES SHORT AND LONG TERM.
aND WHAT GAULS ME IS THAT they ARE EXEMPT FROM IT. (SORRY caps)
This is the perfect time for a superhero to enter the scene. :)
