clearly this is why up until recently the AMA has been against the public option.... and are currently only for a very token public option.

No most doctors actually DON'T want government run healthcare.

And what proof do you have?  Have you asked any Doctors?   Of course, you'll probably load your question up in a way that will intimidate them to either not respond or to tell you what you want to hear so that they don't have to get into a political game with someone using your tactics.  ;)

As of this poll, taken last year, 59% support a universal health care plan. 

The government will not be running the hospitals.  They will be offering a non-profit and low overhead costing insurance. 

Please, give me evidence of all these doctors who do not want your loaded question.  **waits patiently for your newsmax/World nut daily/Fox news link to support your stance**

The AMA is a better source the rueters.  What with the AMA being run by the doctors who vote on the stuff themselves.

Ruerters takes a sampling.

The AMA is basically all doctors voting for a leader and a platform.

Want to know the doctors majority opinions?  Ask the American Medical Assosiation.

Unions represent what their workers want.

Nonprofit insurance would be great.  If it says nonprofit.  As in, no actual government funds could be put towards it.  Only what people pay into it for care and overhead.

Instead what will likely happen is they will drive a bunch of taxpayers funds to the program to push other companies out of buisness.

I mean otherwise why not just incentivise the making of private non-profit insurance?
