From rubicons post: ..."We need to keep the present system and modify it to be more workable."
During the Obama care ram it through and we will read it later days....this was suggested several times without ever being addressed. Now why would that be?
The system, with it's flaws has been doing the job long before the Clintons. Remember it was Hillary's top priority. Anybody remember why it never flew?
The much more practical approach to fixing the broken parts of an already working system that everybody was familiar with would at least leave us all with what we know. The Obama care, git er done bill is still being defined. The costs are still unknown, but even Obama's budget gang used to say it would cost way more than projected. Funny how that cry from within has mysteriously gone silent.
The old adage of the devil you know is much better than the one you don't. And for all those who continue to rail about how much better off we are already....why? Because some kids can stay on the policy? Because pre existing conditions are not a problem? Because they filled in a little piece of the donut hole?
These can all be estimated as to their cost. The cost of these pied piper bread crumbs will be lost in the rounding of the costs of the pieces of the bill (of goods sold!) that go into effect in 2014.
Just another political charade that the majority by the way were against.....and most recent polls still show a majority against.
Never mind that noise...it is just we the people expressing what we did not want......and see what impact that had on Obama's crowning achievement!
