The hope of real healthcare reform is gone. The public option is out. This may well have been our last opportunity to get healthcare reform done right. I don’t believe the idea that we just need to pass any kind of healthcare bill now, and then down the road, healthcare can be fixed or improved. I find it hard to believe because the Democrats already lost the Massachusetts Senate seat and will likely lose additional House and Senate seats in the upcoming elections in 2010 and probably in 2012 as well. The presidency may as well be in jeopardy if the economy doesn’t turn around very soon. With fewer Democrats in both houses, I don’t see how the healthcare system can be improved in the near future.
