Well here is the bill from the House. As expected it does include a public option and tax increases for only the wealthy. It will cover the millions
without coverage. They say the 2000 pages are available to read online.
The initial Republican is as expected.'
Republicans tore into the bill, characterizing it as a series of tax increases and new regulations that would destroy jobs while doing little to
stop spiraling health care costs.
"This really is a government takeover of health care in America," said Rep. Mike Pence, R-Indiana. "It appears for all of the world like a massive
government-run insurance plan paid for with a freight train of mandates and taxes and bureaucracy."
The next few weeks should be interesting as they debate and try to merge this with the Senate Bill.
