Did you notice that the first substantive word of the official "detailed summary" of the bill is "prohibits"? Kind of fitting, isn't it.

Democrats could care less about your health. All they care about is CONTROL. These terms prove it.

The Democrats control the process and the content of the bills. Health care reform is subordinate to their power over the sector of the economy. And they will not bind themselves in what they would thrust upon the american people.
