Don’t worry. It will make its way back in via amendments along with tax dollars for abortion, the death panel for seniors, the reduction of medicaid and medicare, loss of jobs, loss of doctors and a single-payer system. I’ve lived long enough to not believe or trust anything a politician tells us. Funny thing is, although this bill will pay for all of the illegal aliens’ health care on our backs, it will FAIL to insure several million American citizens. But that, and a helluva lot more is what you get with government run programs.

The rejection of the public option by the Senate is very sad. There is a very large demographic of people that are being overlooked right now, and a public option would benefit them.
Eva Mor author of (Making the Golden Years Golden) responded beautifully to a key part of the problem:
“The administration of the existing health delivery system is bloated with waste and unnecessary cost. If information was shared by all providers of health services and all insurers by using computerized systems to store all medical records, it would cut costs and reduce errors that would save and improve lives.” http://www.ourblook.com/component/option,com_sectionex/Itemid,200076/id,8/view,category/#catid107
To regulate costs in the medical industry and update the existing Information and communication technologies would certainly cut a large portion of spending, which has featured as primary complaint in this debate all along.
I hope that when the two bills come together to be voted on the public option may make its way back into the bill.
