It isn't. It's bribery. I personally consider myself an advocate of reforming the system (and, yes, this inevitably includes a saner form of rationing).

But the very best thing is Senator Bernie Sanders (I - Vermont) major expansion of Regional Health Care Centers. This move will work and really will reduce health care expense. <br /><br />But, overall, the bill is a massive disaster of pork, gifts to Big Pharma and Insurance companies and insane tax increases that will stiffle the economy while destroying our current health care system.<br /><br />Calling a bill a "Victory" doesn't prevent it from being a failure.
