you talk in circles. on the one hand you say that there isn't any rationing today because people have access to different choices in healthcare coverage, but in the future after the changes are made there will be "rationing", while you also have provided information that there will still be choices available to people beyond the government program, but these private plans will be "crowded out" by the government plan that doesn't offer as much as the bare bones government plan...
sheesh.
you can criticize the proposed plan as too costly, you can criticize the government plan for not providing enough coverage, but it is inaccurate to criticize the plan as not allowing choices (as it does), or for forcing people to enroll in it (which it doesn't), or to call it elitist (when it isn't), or to say it replaces private health plans (which it doesn't).
the plan is intended to provide coverage to people who don't or can't get private coverage. that's all it is, and it is not nationalized healthcare.
