Congress has lost its mind...

They've been kicking the can ... well ... like ... forever pretty much. We just didn't know about it as much.
Something as large as the HCRA? That will pretty much limit the others, no? Its scope alone makes it unique in many ways. The tie of employment and healthcare will be broken soon, as it should be. Who and how it gets paid for will be dealt with over time. Will it be fair, equitable ... probably not, but it is the right thing to do. If some would just stop bitching about caring for their fellow man and spend more time working on the implementation, we'd all be far better off.

Well that is not how things work in a society of a Right to "pursue happiness".

Given that "they" are elected to give the population the best way forward in that pursuit of happiness,that's exactly their job.

To bad that few of them end up doing that. Some may have entered the job with good intentions but after a little bit of arm twisting by special interests and senior members not many end up just like the others, looking out for themselves and their hold on power.
