It passed

I can never understand how so many people in the U.S., including so many who don't have health care insurance, consider universal health care 'communist'...



When all it really does is provide for those who can't provide for themselves...



(Though that in itself is probably seen as 'communist' in the U.S.. I sometimes think that Scrooge's comment on the poor should be enshrined in the U.S. Constitution 'If they'd rather die, then they had better do it and decrease the surplus population.')

Of course, once the government bureaucracy gets into it it'll become much like ours, and soon will need to be dismantled and re-done, just like ours needs to be. But it's a start...
