Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 OK. You’re right. The Enron scandal proves that privatized health care won’t work. And several phone books proves we should go back to one phone provider. In fact the whole free enterprise system should be done away with. Et tu comrade. ( E. Abrahamson, D.C.)
