The most important point!! No matter what they say, they will find a way to bring down every states who opt out. The states who "opt out" will be on a sort of enemies list for not playing ball. No one should think for a moment there is any way to opt out. There is no opting out in a socialist state. TerryP Nebraska.

Most patients on Medicare are unaware that hospitals are incurring massive losses with denial of payment for under 30 day re-admission rates. This issue is especially problematic for hospitals with large patient populations of older persons with multiple chronic conditions on Medicare. Non-payment of services to local hospitals by the government negatively impacts the entire community. Hospitals will go out of business and then where will Americans go for medical services?

They need the money from someone to pay for everything they want done, and from whom better then the people from the states that don't agree with them.

Well, according to Senator Reid, every State in the Union including Maine would have an opton to opt out of the so called public option, so no worries there.
