They just want control of 17% of this country's GDP.

I believe that is an absolutely false statement, all though it makes a great sound bite. Nor do I believe Health Care reform is about securing more votes or is even politically sound reasoning! It would be far more expediant to just leave it alone. So what IS the motivation? I think it stems from a sincere motivation to grant access to health care to a segment of the population that has been denied such coverage.
The Republicans and Democrats have attempted various reforms over the decades with some success and some failures. It is an extremely difficult issue to grapple with and no way will you keep all people happy all the time. It's an impossible task and this latest attempt at reform may ultimately fail to pass as well.
Flawed though it may be, I hope it does pass. We really do need to address the issue of to many American's being denied quality health care for one reason or another. THAT is simply not acceptable in a civilized society.
