Have you looked at the Health Care bill yet? We have a copy of the House version and the Senate version on the counter at the store now for customers to look at. You can also find it online at: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-3200 and at http://www.thomas.gov/

I am starting to make notes on the bill as well. I have written up about 3 pages on the first 125 pages of the House version of the bill. They are available on my blog at: http://clccivicslessons.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-1st-attempts-at-dissecting-health.html
