The politics of health care policy create opportunities driven by public demands for lowering costs and providing health security, constrained by fear of loss of what people have now, fears that will be inflamed by opponents. The best course toward reform will provide people a choice of improved public coverage and the ability to keep improved employer coverage.

Inclusion of a Medicare/public plan in the Affordable Care Act marketplaces is a policy option but one of relatively low significance.
