17%????? in the words of Chris Farley, " Well laudy, freakin, dah" Massachusetts just deprivatized health care to a certain extent. I lose ( as a college student ) 32% of my income in taxes. I understand what you are saying about how I could keep my private health care company, but that is not the problem. The problem is that I would have my own company AND paying (through taxes) portions of other peoples insurance. That is 100% stealing. Heck, why don't I help out with other peoples tuition besides my own too while we are at it. Oh, wait I already do send undeserving minorities who get 700's on their SAT's while white people who do deserve to go but can't afford it get screwed
