The question is not, do you want the government to provide you with health care. The question is, do you want the government to
control your health care. And who pays for this? Anyway, I fail to see how health care will be cheaper by adding yet another payee: government bureaucrats. Might as well cut the middle man out and go rob your "rich" neighbors.
Oh, and this would add tremendously to the cost of campaigns. Think how many more things would become hot political issues.

They load your doctor up with forms so that he has to hire employees to fill them out, who do you think pays for that? Bet he passes the cost for interfacing with the insurance bureaucracy on to you, who passes it on to the insurance company who in turn passes it back to you in higher premiums and/or co-pays.
