MD's [probably RCG too] can be the biggest assholes. Read up on narcissism: to find a flaw in a narcissistic person's thinking is to make a lifelong enemy. I've been there and done it, one old bastard hated me until the end of his life because I ONCE made fun of a contradiction in what he was saying... Were he a doctor would he have delighted in bringing the gestapo down on me? Hell yeah, he would have loved it.. You can't go into these goddam hospitals without an attorney and it better not be some smalltime fly-by-night looking to stab you in the back either..

Let's view it this way. Is the implementation of Obamacare going to result in more gov or less, gov workforce and bureaucrats included? Has any implementation of major gov policy ever resulted in smaller gov?
It depends on what you consider big. One thing is certain: It is bigger and growing.
That's fair. I won't argue that there will be no change in government size as a result of national healthcare. But I might argue that, if that's an increase, and if government is shrinking elsewhere, the net size change could be zero.
"It depends on what you consider big."
Absolutely. And I do think feelings are worthy of consideration (I consider myself an amateur philosopher of the Continental variety).
"One thing is certain: It is bigger and growing."
Now that statement is subject to quantitative analysis.
