The health care compromise

Here’s what’s being reported. No public option, but a trigger which is unlikely to be pulled. But some good stuff in exchange: nonprofit plans available through the exchanges, plus Medicare buy-ins for the 55-65 set (me! me! me!).

If this is the final plan, it’s better than most of us were expecting — and definitely good enough to go with.
