(23,664 posts)The Insurance Companies - they want the individual mandate but they don't want all the conditions and cautions that came with it like not being able to terminate people's policies if they get sick, not being able to force young adults off their parent's policies, etc.
Republicans in Congress - they want the entire thing thrown out so they can use it as a club to smack Obama with during the upcoming presidential campaign. Not that they have any better plan.
The Medical Profession - they don't care, because they will continue to complicate the entire process and charge more for their services regardless of who is paying for it.
Drug Companies - see "Medical Profession" above.
Consumers - they want a single payer system of health care delivery but most of them are afraid to use that term because some asshole on TV told them it was "socialism".
The Obama Administration - I have no fucking idea.
