As Kathy said, you nutshelled it. <br /><br />I'd add that IMO, as cobbled together, hobbled, entangled with various corps, compromised and generally Frankenstein's-monsterish as the PPACA may be, its enactment was a major accomplishment and its full implementation (to the extent that can be made to happen) will be vastly beneficial in human terms as well as macroeconomically. I still honestly don't see how anything like single-payer was ever going to make it past the '09-'11 Senate - but down the road, as the PPACA becomes part of the accustomed landscape (again, if it does), it may prove to be the essential transition to single-payer. Even if not, it gets us far ahead of where we were.BHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12991272246814476124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-2738708178767322952012-07-02T06:40:23.406-04:002012-07-02T06:40:23.406-04:00Yes, Mean Jean looked like the ass she is when she...Yes, Mean Jean looked like the ass she is when she had her very public orgasm as she heard the incorrect version of the decision.<br /><br />I wish someone had some video of her reaction when she realized what a fool she'd just made of herself.<br /><br />For decades, I used to disagree with Conservatives - but I never thought they were evil people.<br />Over the last two decades, I've come to realize that they really are. <br />They are evil to the core.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609452382111686086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-20384380414389583152012-07-01T19:32:56.068-04:002012-07-01T19:32:56.068-04:00Yep, that's it in a nutshell. And it's the...Yep, that's it in a nutshell. And it's the perfect contrast to Rep.
