Article from Truthout  — It says healthcare reform doesn’t go far enough … we’ve given in too much to the powerful insurance companies. Some 12 million people will still not be covered. The premiums for the Public Option will be higher than private insurance, since utilization might not be monitored as closely and it will attract a less healthy pool of participants.

Article from Paul Krugman of the NY Times -- he is hopeful that the legislation, though not perfect, is passed in the House. He thinks the current “undecided centrists” will influence the outcome.  The biggest problem is the misinformation machine.
