Concerning last week’s letter (Bob Olson in the April 9 issue) that health care reform should be put on hiatus and a new bill developed based on compromise.
This bill is full of compromises, all made on the Democratic side. And it was passed in accordance with the Constitution which the Right holds in such esteem. Democrats compromised on offering a single payer program, on the public option, on clarifying that federal funds would not be used for abortion, among others. Republicans had 10 years to put forth their own reforms. When President Obama proposed a summit to work out a compromise, Republicans stated that it was a “set up.”
So health care insurance reform being challenged is all about the Constitutionality of it?
That is a bunch of baloney.
This is nothing more than a political ploy by the Republicans to again thwart the will of the people to get meaningful reform of a failed for profit system.
