The American Medical Association (AMA) was facing a 21 percent cut in physicians' reimbursements under the current law. Obama promised to kill the cut if they backed his bill. The cuts are the fruit of a law requiring annual 5 percent to 6 percent reductions in doctor reimbursements for treating Medicare patients. Bravely, each year Congress has rolled the cuts over, suspending them but not repealing them. So each year, the accumulated cuts threaten doctors. By now, they have risen to 21 percent.

“It is fascinating how the American people can switch power of the legislative and executive branches of government to the Democrats in pretty much one election.
What is fascinating is how little affect this change of power has.
The federal government has become its own machine moving forward irregardless of what voters do.
Interesting that Health Care Insurance Cos. will keep their anti-trust exemption. What vile "representatives" thought it was good for people that insurance cos. had this to begin with?
It was easier for congress to approve the iraq war. But no matter what passes, if anything ever does, it will only benefit "representatives" and large corps.”
