It was a baited question. I've read Chuck's posts for a while, and I zeroing in on the AMG comment. I'm guessing that Chuck's Share to pay for socialized medicine would be much more than his current costs.

I'm in favor of some type of safetynet medical care system for everyone. We actually do have something like that right now, but emergency rooms are far from effiecient. I think tort reform, tigheter controls on the use of technology, and more of an emphasis on vacinations and preventive medicine, and tigher borders would all help the effort and make some type of socialiazed option palletable to those who currently oppose the idea. My only fear is a single system that everyone must take part in, like in Canada. There's a reason so many Canadians go to Detroit of all places to have certain procedures performed.
