You're right and as far as it goes, it would be a boon.

Unfortunately, that requires a free market approach to keep costs
competitive and we just got a crap sandwich of a "health care" bill.

This is gonna be a diaster and the more the details are being exposed,
it's becoming apparent that it's nothing more than a Chavez style take
over of a major industry - confiscatory and restrictive.

Hopefully, 2010 will bring a reversal of this boondoogle.


For different reasons, like you, I'm not overly happy with the proposed
health care bill, but we've been trying, without success, to get health
care legislation for 60 years. Regardless, of this bill's quality, that
sacred cow has been slaughtered. Now, fine tuning, in the future, will
be considerably easier to accomplish.



If this dies in conference because the house and senate can't agree,
the cow will just crawl off bleeding.


Not really. The government is desperate to increase revenue. And what
a better way than for get all those health care dollars them dumb down
the system for "economics" and not disclose the skimming?

All this nanny state talk and debt-corruption spending by
Ombama-be-my-mama types needs to be funded. Sure seems like an active
unwllingness by congress and the senate to stop it.

It will come down to how people vote in 2010....many a congress/senate
are trying to BS their way out of their corrupt behavior and
misrepresentation.
