Oh, I'm not packing up my desk, but I hope you're thinking right. Does it not worry you that the government is going to be determining what 'affordable' is? I'm hearing all kinds of proposals, but not in any specific detail and mostly what I'm not hearing is the projected dollar amounts. It's pretty scary that we're not hearing any commitment. For instance:

"Obama advisers said the smallest businesses would be exempt from this requirement. The advisers said that those business might have under 15 employees, but that no number has been set."

"Might" doesn't cut it. By the time it's all said and done, that "might" might go from 15 to 5, or even 2.
