Health Care Reform

It appears that today might be the end of a very long road to health care reform. There's been a lot of debate on the subject really leading back before the election. The mainstream sounds like an echo chamber, so I'm hoping you guys have better insight. Will this bill do what the administration claims to do, or is it as bad for the future of America as Fox says?

    Ah, welcome back to Slashdot. I attempt to formulate a valid debate and am immediately modded down as "flamebait" by someone who disagrees with the points I made. Is rational debate "flamebait?" I guess it is, but isn't that exactly the point of this post? Aren't we trying to elicit a higher quality of debate than the shouting match going on on TV? Is Slashdot so ill equipped to discuss politics?

    Ahhh. Senator Ted. You know, if there's a hell, that man is wishing he had a glass of water right now. Some nice cool Chappaquidick water would really go down nice, don't you think?

    Yeah, I know, that's off subject, but you mentioned the douche first, LOL
