>>President Obama said it's been 25 years coming. Try 60 years. Almost every president since Truman has tried to do this and every one of them failed. Like him or dislike him, no one can say any longer that Obama can't get things done. There was a hard core opposition allied against him, huge lobbying money tried to thwart it yet again, there were divisions in his own party, and the American public remains skeptical. He got it done anyway. IMO, and I say this in the same way I would speak of Ronald Reagan, he gets things done. He is a game changer.

This isn't health care. It is just an insurance tweak to bring on board those who cannot afford health insurance. It will probably be much less than private health insurance and will force a rate reduction upon the private insurance industry. There's a lot more, but this is enough to keep this thread active for a while. :)
