Best as I understand it, that industry makes 1/6th of the economy, it would be devestating to start from scratch so their only choice is to tweak and repair problems.
The public option which could workside with their current system is struggling because there is a huge pressure put on from this lucritive industry to stop it, they know it will cut into their profits, alongside the fact they know with the reforms their profits will go down anyhow.
Its a disaster to watch all this unfold, makes me hate American politics more than I already did, so much special interest pushing their agenda, scared congresspeople and senators doing whats in their own best interest to get re-elected over doing real change.
