Health care reform will be painful for some: “The current fight to protect those profits is a microcosm of what you can expect to see if a larger effort to rein in health costs ever gets going. The defenders of the status quo won’t say that they are protecting themselves. Instead, they’ll use the same arguments that the medical equipment makers are using “” that a change will destroy jobs, bankrupt small businesses and, above all, harm patients.”

Thanks for the link doc. Now I read on the NYT that the Medicare National Bank has bowed to pressure from their deep pocketed lobby friends to suspend this competitive bidding process. The free market destroyed among an unrelenting spigot of money that is bankrupting our nation for generations to come.
