I agree that the biggest issue is that there is simply no way to tell what's actually "better". This issue is convoluted, with good and bad points to all approaches, and everyone still trying to come out on "top".
But -- I expect that the "public option" will be far less horrific, if people simply remember that (like the folks in Australia), they can pay for an alternative health care plan, or may have a better plan that is employer-provided.
