Wonderful post, and right on target. I too have been frustrated by the twists and turns that health care reform has taken. The very thing that made me believe we had to reform it -- the number of uninsured people -- seems to have fallen by the wayside in some ways.
But it does seem like there will be a reform bill passed, and I've decided we just have to look at it as a first step. We can't get things perfect on the first go, and so we've just got to do the best we can and then try to tinker and tweak it to make it better.
Whenever politics intersects with real life, this seems to be the way it goes. But if some big steps can be taken now, maybe the giant strides can be next.

Thanks so much for writing.
