But the rest of it I doubt will get struck. But nothing surprises me anymore. When we win everything back in the fall, they'll write a whole new bill and it'll pass, get signed and that'll be that. They need to just do single payer and be fucking done with it. I'm sick of the humming and hawing around. It is SICK that we are the only first world country without it. SICK.
