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 1179 Views
If they did that, they'd be signing their own resignations. Tom - 20/01/2010 02:54:56 AM 1068 Views
Probably so but Pelosi did bring it up a few weeks ago. everynametaken - 20/01/2010 04:05:17 AM 1072 Views
Pelosi never thought it would come to this a few weeks ago. Tom - 20/01/2010 04:18:15 AM 1055 Views
