8. HR 676 is still currently sitting in committee where it was sent to die.
As long as insurance companies are allowed to exist, we will pay super-premium prices for sub-standard or non-existent care, period.

The Obama-Biden plan does not address poor people, for whom tax credits are meaningless, nor does it restrain the companies ability to deny payment for needed treatment.

The very fact that huge profit margins and a nearly infinite number of processes, forms, and requirements continue to exist puts such an enormous drain on the system that it ensures failure. Translation; People will continue to die so that these parasites can remain.
