And if the current health care bill were going to have any effect on early detection and treatment I would be behind it 100%. But I will bet anyone that 10 years from now there will have been no direct result on those same fatality statistics.

It's not that change isn't needed....it's that THIS law is a BAD law. It will not accomplish the change that is needed. The Patriot Act was the same situation in my opinion. A bad law got railroaded though on the momentum of "quickly, we must do something".

My prediction is that within the new few years the vast majority will look back at this law and ask how anyone in their right mind could have voted for it in the first place (just as most do with regards to the Patriot Act now). Members of Congress who fought long and hard for this law will be quoted saying "If I had realized the repercussions of the law I would never have supported it"
