Yeah...that's waaay too easy. I mean, just because EVERY OTHER member  
of the G8 has some sort of national health care system, and still they  
all spend less GDP than we do on it is no reason to go all socialist.

Fortunately there's a rising groundswell on both the left and right  
about the Treasury proposal along the lines of: "They want to do  
WHAT??? Are they fucking CRAZY???"

We'll see if it's enough to keep them from rolling over.

Obama, at least, is calling for some meaningful regulatory and  
oversight language in the thing at the very least.

What I fear is that we'll see a bill that bails out Wall Street and  
foreclosed homeowners and leaves the rest of us holding the bag.

Again.
