>> If anyone is interested in what is really in the Health Care bill, I found a good summary.

This is NOT a good summary. It is a LIBERAL summary. It doesn't say ANYTHING about the bad stuff in the legislation --

- Like the fact that it will result in trillions of dollars in new debt;

- Like it will institutionalize rationing of health care making bureaucrats, not your doctor, in charge of your health care;

- It will impose more unfunded mandates on the states which are, of course, already broke;

- It will place unprecedented power in the hands of bureaucrats to make life and death decisions on the part of the American people;

- It will result in a massive curtailment -- worldwide -- in medical technologies/drug R&D;

- It will eliminate Medicare Advantage -- wipe it off the face of the earth, leaving millions of aged without benefits;

- It will take Part D, the best functioning government health care program in history -- the ONE program that can be considered fiscally responsible, and make it financially untenable.

- It will kill hundreds of private insurers in the near term, and ultimately lead to a single payer system, which is the stated objective of the Left.

That's a start.

More than anything, it just goes to show how gullible and ignorant you are on this subject, that you believe what you posted was a "good summary" of the legislation. Not even close.
