Why do we need to pay for four years before any change is enacted?

THere are both costs and benefits implemented immediately and other costs and benefits that are deferred until regulations can be written...unless you expect the Insurance Exchange to be created overnight and w/o public comment (then you would probably complain about acting too quickly and w/o transpaerency).

Exactly what are those provisions that were stripped out that represented the vast majority of reform?
The public option?
