We’re one step closer to passing this historic healthcare bill .

I don’t know if I’ve said this in so many words, but the main reason I can give for supporting the healthcare bill is that the Rube Goldberg system it constructs is pretty much unsustainable – and yes, I see that ultimately as a positive.
