Between Me and My Doctor

Quick Post...
Everyone on the right seems to be particularly critical about 'the government coming between you and your doctor'. The assumption that is being made here is that there currently is no one between you and your doctor, and if the government were to step in things would be worse. However, this currently is not the case, as there is an insurance company acting as the middle man. Creating a public option would allow people to choose who they want to stand between them and their doctor, a profit driven corporation, or an agency of a democratically elected government.
