Too many people are totally confused with it and nobody really knows anything about it. Total clusterfck!!!! Maybe we can get Rasmussen to tell us Obama's plan. Since he has a poll about it and questions people about Obama's plan he must be one of the few people who are privy to "Obama's Plan".

The good news is that what we are going to end up with is going to be so totally emasculated that the damage will be limited.

Unfortunately, our economy may be too fragile to handle even the limited damage that will ensue. We will just have to wait and see.

Forestalling the implosion will ruin the economy.

Pretty much what I hoped for in general, a watered-down version that's not nearly as comprehensive and more importantly, cheaper (I hope).

Cheaper? The unfunded mandate to the states for up to 30 million will require higher property taxes for states based on the number of uninsured in that state. Unless all the uninsured move to DC.

What I meant was, cheaper than the more grandiose schemes, not cheaper than what we have today.
