Well, the difference, is we can't do it (healthcare) without those who have different concerns on board--at least apparently we can't. Somehow those concerns have to be addressed--if possible. I think the problem for the opposition is a "slippery slope" one. If the government can tell us to do this what can't it/they tell us to do? Additionally, I will be surprised if the legality of the compulsory part stands so we are going to have to figure out how to deliver care in a manner we, as a country, can agree on.
