Don't vote on what you haven't finished writing.
Politico on the complexity of the health bill:
"We're at a critical stage when people are trying to answer that question: 'How will this help me?'" said Drew Altman, president and CEO of the Kaiser foundation. Lawmakers "need to answer that in the next month or two.". . .
Political strategists say Americans crave concrete details about what it means for them and their families: how much they'll have to shell out for premiums, whether they can stop worrying about losing coverage in the future or -- if they're lucky enough to have affordable care now -- what it's going to cost them to help pay for others.
But Democrats can't deliver those specifics yet because they're not settled on a plan themselves.
And don't try to tell me that there won't be unintended consequences that will be as bad as what we have now.
