The Republicans offered up a very reasonable plan, that addressed all the issues that people are concerned about. Tort reform, opening up competition, providing a hardship safety net for people who fall through the cracks, regulating industry the industry for pre-existing conditions, etc. The CBO scored the plan and found it actuall reduced costs. Their plan wouldn't raise taxes and punish businesses and explode the deficit like Obama/Pelosi would. Of course this plan was dead on arrival and was shot down in a hot minute.
the Democrats main focus isn't on solving problems. their first mission is to take over the system, that to them solves the problem. they only know one approach, total central command and control, that way it consolidates more power in Washington and guarantees that they will be able to meddle in ours lives forever.
they'll pass some hideous bill, but I'm not too worried about it because I'm pretty confident it will be scrapped by the next congress.
