If we don't take action to reduce medical costs in some way only the very wealthy will be able to afford care. I see it as a damed if you do and damed if you don't situation. In either case we may be headed for "bankruptcy" or a substantially reduced standard of living for the typical American. Gotta do something, that part is well understood by both sides.

Want lower health CARE costs? Outlaw Health insurance policies. Health CARE costs would drop like a Haitian building.
