Yes, your correct, nothing has changed, YET. Also correct on Steve's unfortunate issue with a lower quality insurance plan. BUT, the point of the dig is, is that Steve's problem is what can be expected for all of us, if the insurance industry is regulated to be on par with a govt plan. Now, I happen to be one of the lucky ones with a great plan that would be considered a "premium" plan and be taxed to the point of the employer likely moving to a lesser quality plan or the govt optioin if it passes. Plus, much of my family income comes from the health care industry, that will be regulated to the point of moving disposable mfg for one company off shore to cut costs, and likely affecting my wifes employment and that of many others. So, I have a large personal stake in this experiment in socialism that will end in disaster, and if I can get a laugh out of it occasionally and maybe make another guy laugh who needs a laugh, I'll do so. There is no political or off topic discussion forum here and thats probably a good thing, but as long as it does not get out of hand or nasty there is nothing wrong with the occasional comment or joke. This is a close knit group and this site is tame by comparison, I think we can handle it.

Hell, if I said what I really think I'd have to ban myself.
