A majority of Americans support a public option. An overwhelming majority of Democrats in Congress support a public option. Doctors support a public option. Why then is the public option seen by some as the third rail of health insurance reform?

Middle class families pay $1,000 annually in hidden taxes to recoup the cost of care for our nation's uninsured.

It is scary to know that 30 mill. Americans are without health insurance but it is even worse knowing that the government has done nothing to lower the cost of insurance so that more people can get it.
