A lot of the stuff doesn't kick in for years. What is the hurry? Maybe
it is that
election coming up that has the Obamunists worried that their turn at rule
is coming to a
well deserved close in November. There is an opinion poll that matters.

Maybe it's that they've been trying to pass this since 1933 and it's now or
never, because the business interests in medicine -- particularly the
insurance industry -- will spend with no limit to confuse and defeat it.

Now or never. And if it's never, brace yourself for a declining economy that
is totally in the hands of big business interests.

Republicans, who suddenly have expressed an interest in "alternative" reform
measures, have had 70 years to propose ideas. The first ones came last year,
in an effort to defeat the ones the Dems had proposed. If they feel no
pressure to do anything about it, after a defeat, they'll put it on the
shelf again for the rest of their lives.
