Why is this government making it an all-or-nothing proposition? "Reform" is a meaningless term. Not everyone who opposes a gov't-OPERATED plan also opposes a gov't-REGULATED plan. Changes to insurance law to level the playing field (pre-existing conditions, portability, individual tax deductions, etc.) are warranted.
But BHO has said it himself: his ultimate goal is a single-payer system. Reforms that actually improve the functioning of the private market stand in the way of that goal, so they must not be tolerated.
It reminds me of the Surge. The left virulently opposed the Surge because of the risk of it working. And guess what--it did. We won. And by the time the 2008 election rolled around, Iraq was a non-issue. If not for Lehman Brothers, Obama isn't president right now.
