As opposed as I am to universal health care and all other positive rights, this garbage bill seems like the worst of both worlds. A large part of our problem is that we have a third party payer system. That will always be a problematic arrangement whether the third party is the government or a health insurance company, but having the government forcing people to do business with the "evil, greedy" insurance companies while whoever is the sitting Secretary of HHS makes up the rules on the fly is just the ultimate turd sandwich.
