    I'm marking this for further response later when I'm back on my own computer with my notes and saved links so I can compare them with the final version that passed.

      Knock yourself out. You can be certain they won't be making the public option mandatory for anyone. That would kill the bill.

      But it doesn't matter all that much what slight differences there may be between the final version of the House bill and the one they released two weeks before. The Senate will pass its own bill, then members of both houses will have to negotiate to arrive at a bill that can pass both the House and the Senate and be sent to the president. The one that gets through both houses will undoubtedly be even more compromised than the House bill.

      That said--still better than the status quo.

        I see one area that is still slithering. They can still hire people with no choice but the government option unless the individual pays 100% out-of-pocket (which few can afford). So I'm still counting on the Senate to clean it up.

        I think no tax money should go to anything extremely controversial (faith-based funding, school vouchers, abortion) and that non-profits should raise their own money for these. (I'm pro-choice, btw, so I'd be willing to privately donate so poor women could obtain abortions.)
