none of us have seen the final version of the bel pre to say whether or not he will institute more taxesat is something we will have to wait and see. given the political climate, it would be incredibly difficult for him to raise taxes on the middle class or race taxes on anybody but the top earners in this country. this is a really tenuis environment for democrats now. they are watching that carefully. you may see the republicans take over the house, if they are not careful. it is a long shot but it will be less of a long shot. host: the comp -- the caller mentioned senator dorgan's efforts on the importation of prescriptions from other countries. what happened and why did that fail? guest: this would have allowed people in the u.s. to import pharmaceuticals from canada. the pharmaceutical companies were strongly opposed to it. that would add new competition to them and drive down prices. there were a number of lawmakers, senator mccain for example, who worked with the pharmaceutical companies to kill the bill in exchange for the pharmaceutical companies' support for the health care bill
