 All of which does zero good for the uninsured, who are
 predominatly the working poor.

 What good are Health Savings Accounts to those who no money to
 put into it, and don't pay enough taxes to benefit from tax
 credits?

 You can already buy insurance across state lines. What they want
 is to make the lowest state standards the national standard. For
 congress to mandate all states allow insurance at the lowest
 standard is a major usurpation of states rights.

 Tort reform is just a way to save money for the insurance
 companies. Until they will tell you how much money frivolous
 lawsuits actually cost this country it's all a fraud. Their real
 intention is to limit legitimate lawsuits.

 Oh, and countries with national health care don't have our
 malpractice problems, without tort reform. Most malpractice
 suits are to cover future medical bills for the malpractice.
 Since National Health care guarantees coverage, there is no such
 cost burden.

 The majority of Americans support national health care. Most
 even support Obamacare, with limited reservations. Most just
 want it tweaked, not abolished.
