Bending the Health Care Cost Curve

The Senate health care bill does have some people optimistic about its potential. Check out Ron Brownstein's article in the Atlantic:

"I'm sort of a known skeptic on this stuff," Gruber told me. "My summary is it's really hard to figure out how to bend the cost curve, but I can't think of a thing to try that they didn't try. They really make the best effort anyone has ever made. Everything is in here....I can't think of anything I'd do that they are not doing in the bill. You couldn't have done better than they are doing."
