Why hasn't it happened? Because 3 years ago nobody was worrying about this problem.

Come on, health care reform has been a front burner issue for almost every President.

Most people in the country have no problem with their current health care arrangement. It only became an issue when the campaign became about health care. Everyone starts hearing Obama talk about how we need reform and now, suddenly, everyone wants reform.


Kind of like President Bush and reforming Social Security. BTW experts were projecting it to go cash flow negative in 2012 - 2017 back then. CBO said they look for the transition to occur in 2010.

Unlike ObamasCare the SS problem was real and will affect everyone.
