health Care reform bill

Granting healthcare to our citizens is the priority for a wealthy wealthy nation like the USA. It will not make us less wealthy. It just moves us in the direction of more civilized countries like in Europe, Japan, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, to name a few. Civilized nations do not let people die for lack of healthcare. At least David Frum recognized the lack of a Republican health care choice - but also the restrictions and shortcomings (as there are many) within the new health care bill, and though it's aims are laudable, it will not achieve the type of health care reform that would be better accomplished by other means. This is only going to mean we're getting additional efforts from either the people (via taxes) or foreign banks to give to insurance executives because people have to purchase insurance now, and only a lot of people can get subsidized care. UPS and FedEx do better than USPS for a reason.
