I recently (30 minutes ago) took a 15 minute telephone poll on medical care reform. The questions didn't allow me to say "I like the idea of tax-payer financed state- (or federal-) organized single-payer." It's also clear from the questions that many people will answer contrary to what they would like, since many don't understand that having a bigger insurance pool would cut per-person cost. So take any poll numbers you hear with a spoonful of salt. -- Jim Devine / "There can be no real individual freedom in the presence of economic insecurity." -- Chester Bowles
