So you must be one of the pessimistic folks I spoke of? I don’t need to explain how it will work; you need to explain how it won’t.
A little late to respond, probably.. but do you really consider the US to be a "wealthy" country at the moment? A double-digit unemployment rate (Hell, it's almost 15% here in Michigan), a troubled economy, and a mounting national debt (that will only shoot higher with the implementation of a government run health care system) all make me very pessimistic when it comes to the success of something like this.
Where would we be without the agitators of the world attaching the electrodes of knowledge to the nipples of ignorance?
