A Compromise on Health Care

Apparently there's talk about compromise on the health care bill, including on the public option. So here's what I think would be a reasonable compromise:

If a privately insured person dies after having a claim denied or being dropped from their insurance, the entire chain of people involved with the decision, especially the set of executives who make the company policies, is charged with murder. After all, if the private system works so well, then a jury should agree that the company acted morally.

"But that's unfair!" some might say. "A private company can't be expected to shoulder that kind of risk!"

What's that you're saying? The public option does make sense?

This is aimed at the world at large, not at my friends list.
