Yes.--Emptiness once again. There is silence because there is nothing new under the sun in that they are just doing what they have been doing for the past 7 or 8 years or longer---not much of anything to solve the problems. For some reason, the US government cannot even look to our modern neighbors to see how they have more or less successfully created a viable health care system.

We have not left square one.
