Senate healthcare plan is no plan at all

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

I wonder what they call themselves, "Say No To Reform" Group? Bastids.

Bye-bye health care reform. The impression that we would stand a chance to get something right for once was nice while it lasted.

One likely outcome of this, IMHO, is that states where there is a good amount of public support for a public option may see those public options emerge at the state level. That wouldn't be a bad thing, IMO, especially if the lessons of MA are heeded.

I could live with that. I have always said that this should be addressed at the state level anyway.
