I'm for it as long as it doesn't involve the government micromanaging how the health care providers perform their services. This is a problem with all health insurance, public or private, but the micromanagement is done on a more direct level with government-provided insurance, with doctor report cards and so on. They do this now for at least some Medicaid and Medicare implementations, and some of the provisions of Obamacare even accelerated this process.
