I was listing to someone talk about how long it would take to get care if the plan was approved and how we would end up having to ration it. Might thought then went to this:
1. Do you think doctors will flee the US? or
2. Do you think that more people will be getting needless medical procedures? or
3. Are you scared that more poor sick people will actually start getting care and that will push the priviledged people back from getting the care they so greatly deserve?

Since I truely believe that the doctors won't leave, and since the biggest arguement usually includes that statement that fewer procedures will be available, it seems that most people who fear rationing are actually more afraid that someone else will get helped before they do. Even if we talk about doctors leaving this country, they still will most likely stay in the field and help other deserving people. The truth is, the arguement is one of self importance and prejudice, truely believing that some people deserve care over others.
