I get it, now.

I finally understand why support is falling for the health care reform as proposed. It's because you guys managed to elect the most cowardly bunch of idiots in the history of politics to do it for you. And it's not your fault - because the party that should have been doing it, not only didn't do it, but probably messed it up so badly that no one else will ever get the chance to do it right.

They should have gone for single-payer from the outset and then SETTLED for a robust public option. Now? Totally, completely fucked.

I can't speak to that because I don't live there and have no idea how their systems are run. I do know that we are not by far the worst educational system in the country, so there are plenty of states that run things no better than we do.
