As I sit transfixed I am both horrified and amused at the workings of the U.S. congress. People complain that congress does not work well. Untrue. The work very well for the people that pay them. Not, us. Not the mere $158103.00 base. Which they raise at every opportunity regardless of their lack of progress. The large lobby groups which float their re elections and then employ them once they leave for obscene salaries.
The Federal clown college is during their best to sidetrack any real reform due to such considerations as cost or competition (this obviously did not concern them during the trillion dollar Wall Street bail out.) It looks like a weak bill may pass. No public option(oh the horror!) but at least you won't be denied coverage for being ill or having preexisting issues.
My grandmother once told me while watching Billy Graham that she could carve a better man out of a bar of soap. This may be a option. God knows they would be less slippery.
