A BAD ARGUMENT AGAINST THE PUBLIC OPTION

The wingers claim that a public option will crowd out the private sector and that's a good reason to oppose it. In reality, there are many cases of public and private entities existing in the same sector of the economy. I first thought of the US Post Office and the private firms Fedex and UPS. In addition, there are also public and private universities and colleges. Finally, Switzerland has a successful mixture of public and private health care.
