This situation that is now being debated in the Senate not only confuses me but makes me a bit angry.

There seems to more to the program than we expected. There seems to be less than what I thought in success stories. There seems to be a chance of a lot of information being garnered by the government. Seems to me like the lawmakers all want to do the right thing on this, so we just wait and see.

Many say the House bill is to watered down.

In any case, if anyone is interested I offer a link to debate.org which presents some of the plus and minus of it, and the chance to vote (seem like the internet is just one big polling data place...great isn't it because you know how honest these folks are that fill these out)
