Unacceptable

October 30, 2009

Do words matter?

How about this word:

Unacceptable.

In July, 57 members of the House Progressive Caucus wrote a letter to the House Democratic leadership.

It it, they said this:

“Any bill that does not provide, at a minimum, for a public option with reimbursement rates based on Medicare rates — not negotiated rates — is unacceptable.”

That would mean that these 57 brave souls will be voting against Obamacare.

And that means Obamacare will go down in flames.

And then we can start from scratch.

Launch a nationwide drive for single payer.

And get it done.

Onward to single payer.
