POPSObama appears ready to drop 'public option' Heaven forbid that there be a public option. What American's surely need are fewer options and we are going to fight tooth and nail to make sure our options are restricted. Now I don't know about you, but this is only a minor victory. Next up, make sure that our only options are with "for profit" companies. Otherwise its just Socialism with a smiley face painted on it. No non-profit health care! Make non-profit health care against the law!

Yet our infant mortality rate is 40 percent higher than Canada’s, and American mothers are 57 percent more likely to die in childbirth than Canadian ones.
