The bill is a failure.  It requires all American’s to get insurance or pay a fine, but offers no public option.  This does not help the uninsured or the underinsured.  It does not address the issues of coverage portability, of doctor fee's & compensation, of excessive medical testing, of insurance company monopolies, medical law suits or the other issues that make our health care so expensive.  Whoever is elected president in three years will have to revisit this again.  What a waste of time of time and our taxes.  Makes me think about moving to Canada.
