Health Care Bill is Law of the Land

In order to keep ourselves educated it’s necessary to read and understand the Health Care Bill that has been thrust upon us and is now the law. Although bulky when printed out, it will fit nicely on a bookshelf among your Stephen King collection of horror stories. This tome is open to any number of interpretations by any number of people. It will be years before the full impact of this bill is felt by all Americans and certainly not in a positive way.
