Damn. Once again I forgot my /snark tag and got my post mis-interpreted. I was attempting to point out that many opponents like to claim that the bill will kill business while at the same time opposing single payer — which would have solved the very problem they are talking about.
Both sides seem to agree that insurance should be decoupled from employment. Single payer is a great option to do so, but then the socialism boogie man comes out and it’s all over.
I would have preferred single payer to what we ended up with, but fall in the “it’s better than nothing” camp.[/quote]
