It Gets Worse...

...Before It Gets a Lot Worse.

This bit from Bill Moyers isn't fun.

In just the last few months, the health care industry has spent 380 million dollars on lobbying, advertising and campaign contributions. And a million and a half of it went to -- don't hold your breath -- Finance Committee Chairman Baucus, who said he saw "a lot to like" in two proposed public options but voted "no."

Don't just get mad. Get busy.
