Impeding changes to our Health Care system

[TheMercenary]

Whoson is basically correct. If that plan makes it through the legislative process. The question remains will the historically powerful lobby of the health care insurance industry have the strenght to convince Congress to vote against it? This process of introducing the "alternative' government plan may encourage companies who currently provide insurance to their employees to drop it. The costs of such insurance for private companies is second only to payroll. Will the companies continue to pay for it or in more recent discussion allow employees to be taxed on it? What will be the penalty for those companies that drop their plans and let the people just go and apply for the government sponsored plan? Obama floated this during the election. No one knows. And given the previous process of how things have been ramrodded through Congress without having the time to read all of the details in massive bills we may never know til it is to late. The fallout will be felt in all sectors.
