        economic bell curve) are those that use less than their annual

        premiums.  The balance of the bell curve is the body of the bell –
        the middle.  This group represents those that within an acceptable

        range of their premiums; they do not cost or save the insurance
        company any money (this area also represents the middle class of

        the economic bell curve).  Under a single-payer, nationalized,
        socialist – whatever it is synonymously called, this would be

        completely and literally turned inside out – with the majority being
        those that exceed their premiums.

            Even if the insurance company would either agree or be forced,
        and until there is a complete government takeover of the payer

        system they will be forced, the losses will be spread out into higher

        healthcare bill does not – and was not designed to – address the

        healthcare issues facing our Country.  The framework for working
        toward a healthcare solution has been presented for the

        consideration of the reader.
            The present Medicaid system is for those on taxpayer funded

        public assistance and can be adapted for the underinsured and

        uninsured; it would need to be significantly modified and more
        privatized.  First, it should be taken out of government hands and
        put into the hands of private insurance, much like Medicare for
