Difference is that the law is subject to more checks and balances than the whims of a CEO LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 29/09/2009 11:44:58 PM
I did NOT anywhere near claim that ALL the Private Sector is corrupt. I also did NOT deny that the government was free of corruption and infact made it a point to say I was not saying that. But do I really have to throw a textbook at you to show that what I said still holds true throughout time? I would sincerely appreciate if you don't put words in my mouth and jump to extreme conclusions based on half of what I say. Of course if you did THAT you'd hardly be yourself, would you?

I am ONLY saying that I do not feel comfortable with the private sector running wild with no legal accountability with something as important and crucial to health as health insurance.

Or are you really going to make the leap that all government law and regulation is bad as well?
