Reply #29: No, I don't expect it to get done tommorow.

I don't expect that the people responsible for this now, or in the near future are going to be any less paid off, influenced by or otherwise co-opted by the very industries that are largely responsible for our health care problems. I don't think this bill was created with the interests of the people of this country in mind, but rather, with the interests of those same aforementioned industries. I don't consider what they've done with this bill to be a fix at all. It's an excuse and a pretense. It's partisan gamesmanship. It's lukewarm.

And until Americans, and/or her owners can get over the idea of health care as simply a profit making commodity, there is going to be no fix, quick or otherwise. Given that the business of America is business, which means at heart, putting profits above people, this is the health care model we're likely to be stuck with.
