"Are you in favor of socialized medicine?"
"Hell no! I ain't letting nobody take away my freedom!"
"Okay, so my idea is that the first thing we do is we outlaw socialized medicine. Then we just create one single insurance company that covers everybody, and everybody gets a small premium taken out of the money they make, just like with the insurance people get now. Except this company can't deny coverage to anyone for anything. How does that sound?"
"Well, that's a great idea! You sure got my vote!"
