Supposedly it's fixing part of that. Joel Send a noteboard - 23/03/2010 11:21:32 PM
That's the irony of Obamacare: The very people most critical of it (the insurance lobby) will benefit the most, and its most vocal supporters (supposed far left liberals) get the exact opposite of what they say they want. It's not universal healthcare or socialized medicine, it's corporate welfare for the last industry on Earth that needs it. But Obama and the Dems can go to the midterms declaring victory, and that's really all that matters, right? :rolleyes:


deja vu of Medicare Part D?
