Some folks say that we need a base...a start....even a flawed one which can be expanded later....to build on, and that this bill has 'some' good things in it and will help 'some' people.

However, the former insurance executive whistle blower, Wendell Potter who is speaking out these days says that IF there is a bill, this one is exactly what the insurance industry wants....that there are enough loopholes in it to run a train thru; that they will be able to charge what they wish, cut off many people who don't meet their criteria, take a larger % of premiums as profit, and generally do as they wish (under the guise of 'just following what the new law says).

Is that what we want? I wish I knew who was right.
