The Bad Bill

Obama is caving, because he's a really bad president, and is pushing to implement the Republican's policy proposals in the really awful "health care reform" bill.

A recent study on the results of stricter tort laws in the state of Texas;

• The cost of health care in Texas (measured by per patient Medicare reimbursements) has
increased at nearly double the national average;
• spending increases for diagnostic testing (measured by per patient Medicare
reimbursements) have far exceeded the national average;
• the state’s uninsured rate has increased, remaining the highest in the country;
• the cost of health insurance in the state has more than doubled;
• growth in the number of doctors per capita has slowed; and
• the number of doctors per capita in underserved rural areas has declined.

Of course, I'm in the "burn it all down" camp. Hopefully the bill does not pass.. and elections wash these Democrats out of office.
