You won't be able to choose private. If the public option the way Obama intends it goes through, the private insurers will go out of business. The point is to shut down the private insurers. Not offer a nice alternative. If it was really about making healthcare even more affordable, then there would be more competition being encouraged WITHIN the free-market.
But, I think Obama and the democrats pushing these sweeping government programs are being disingenuous in his motives. They want the government in complete, full control of health-care. A monopoly.
