And, I have made the point that I support some a blend of the two economic types which--in fact--we already have to a small degree. I think we should expand it to included 1. Health-care, 2.

By no means do I contend that private capital should not be able to compete in each of these fields just like our U.S.P.O. has private competition with U.P.S., Fed-Ex, and others. If getting the mail is important, the five I've mentioned are more so.

That's what I see at issue here.
