Well after the Senate gets done then it would go to the President and I wouldn't be surprized to see some leagal challenges too. So I don't anticipate it being done until the end of next year, or summer at the earliest. Then they have to actually impliment the changes, so not close but closer than before.

so that means we are going to have the same health care like canada?

I thought I was for this but as I hear more and more I have changed my mind and im a person who pays cash for all my healthcare its cheaper than paying for insurance. I think they should come up with a plan to regulate healthcare to make it affordable for everyone instead of trying to make it universal.

We are hardly close to universal health care. There's way to many people against it. The people who truely need health care can get it-the children.

It means that we are on the road to reform of the healthcare insurance industry.

The children are the ones who truely need healthcare. The elderly can also get it.
