it will be decided by the special interests meeting in secret like everything else in our alleged marcieit is not going to happen. it is not even going to happen for real. the playoffs do not even begin until after congress come back. i predict we will get some sort of legislation, inadequate perhaps, but something so they can declare victory by december 30. >> would you like to tell us what might be in this legislation? >> as much is needed that makes it -- that makes the summit they actually accomplished health care reform. probably not as much as what is needed. you'll still the insurance companies controlling the agenda. you'll still have a health care that is pretty much employee- based, employer-based which will mean a lot of out of work people. but i suspect what you might have is some sort of system or the insurance companies benefit, profit, by being able to get the money that comes from everybody required to have health insurance policy. in exchange, they will give up some of their onerous restrictions on pre-existing conditions or something like that. that would ease again ref
