Howard,

Hate to disillusion you, but someday you'll wake up from your dream and find 
out it was a nightmare.  For starters, the new bill will drive up healthcare 
costs even more than under the current system.  Secondly, it will create a 
huge shortage of primary care physicians.  I can provide you the articles 
off-list by an economist who analyzed the affects of the provisions in the 
recently passed Health Care Act.
