You must've overlooked the question I asked in my previous message. Here it
is again:

Was there any specific legislation which was voted down, or didn't it even
get that far?

FreedomWorks, an anti-reform organization that's a front for the
private health insurance industry, said, on the News Hour, that it
would save $100B. OTOH the CBO gave a figure of I believe $25-35B.
Health care costs us about $2,500B a year, so at best your idea will
save 4%, or roughly 0.7% of GDP. That's not much because in reality
the main problem is the health insurance companies, which have
increased their share of the US economy from 1.1% in the 1960s to 5%
now. On a dollar basis per patient, our private health insurers
consume as much as the Japanese health care system does for both
insurance and treatment.

Tort reform is just a kneejerk idea that addresses only a very small
part of the problem, so what's your real solution?

That requires discipline, unity, and parliamentary skill, all factors
the Democrats have always lacked and that have resulted in them having
less power while in the majority than the Republicans often had while
in the minority.

If you are so drunk that you can't see that I asked the first question,
there *IS* no reason to continue.

Do you think that you asked your question first, about whether Obama will
allow tort reform?

Yes or no?
