...labor, and our economy.

Especially good for small business and entrepreneurs who drive growth.

They needed to remove the 60 vote Senate rule and get on with it.
The Democratic Party has missed a golden opportunity to be heroically good to the American people, labor, and business. A rare three-way win.
These don't come around often.

2. Good for all business. Governent funded single payer takes and enormous

drain on operating capital which is absolutely
crucial in businesses with small margins.

This comment was related to me by the VP in
charge of Atlas Copco's mining services division.

3. Convince the Republicans of that, and we'll get single-payer.
After all, they are the ones calling the shots, it seems.

4. I guess they weren't really that serious about it or they would have removed that
60 vote filibuster requirement. They could have dropped it to 55 and that would have knocked LIEberman, and the DINOS out of business.

My sisters keep trying to get me to leave this country and head for Europe. When I finish school I won't have much of an excuse not to. Things like this monstrosity of a health insurance bill make me not want to stay.
