That is where you would be wrong,...@Anonymous 3:20<br /><br />That is where you would be wrong, at least in the healthcare debate. Medicare operates on a 2 or 3 percent overhead, meaning 97 or 98 cents on the dollar that gets paid in gets returned to direct patient care. Other contries with a single-payer system have similar results. With private insurance it's in the ballpark of 19 to 25 percent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21100730.post-55011021317479435382009-12-30T16:39:48.934-06:002009-12-30T16:39:48.934-06:00Why would Heineman want to be a U S Senator?
