Re: Health Care Reform Dead
I do think it's crazy, it'd be great if they stopped the pre-existing condition bit. Advanced directive counseling certainly isn't a "death panel." I think they could have made insurance less draconian and available for a few more people, but I wasn't holding my breath that comprehensive change would be enacted.
Universal health care bills have passed in a couple of states to get knocked down by the federal law (ERISA?), so I don't think the well is completely poisoned. The reality of people's crappy experiences will eventually out weigh the stupid spin machine, I hope.
