That would be so massive a reform that it would never ever pass. Legolas Send a noteboard - 20/01/2010 12:47:23 PM
"ObamaCare" certainly doesn't even begin to go in that direction. I think a lot of Europeans are inclined to support Obama's health care legislation because they think the US would get something closer to the European system, but that really isn't the case. This new legislation merely tries to patch some of the worst aspects of the American system, most notably the large number of uninsured, but does so without much fundamental reform and without doing much to rein in the towering costs of the American system.

Actually, there is a chance they can use reconiliation to pass it. I hope not. everynametaken - 20/01/2010 02:46:47 AM 760 Views
If they did that, they'd be signing their own resignations. Tom - 20/01/2010 02:54:56 AM 679 Views
Probably so but Pelosi did bring it up a few weeks ago. everynametaken - 20/01/2010 04:05:17 AM 666 Views
Pelosi never thought it would come to this a few weeks ago. Tom - 20/01/2010 04:18:15 AM 685 Views

If this isn't a wake up call to the democratic party... Dominic - 20/01/2010 03:39:36 AM 688 Views
I guess it depends on the wake up call's message. LiterateDog - 20/01/2010 03:45:38 AM 710 Views

As a matter of fact, some babies are put back into the womb, just so they can be aborted again. *NM* beckstcw - 22/01/2010 05:10:35 AM 436 Views
The elderly, eh? Too bad we don't have a program for that. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/01/2010 03:01:40 PM 404 Views
