Sleight of Hand

Once upon a time a single player health plan for America was at least an option for discussion. Now insurance industry shill Sen. Max Baucus (R-MT) and his Republican buddies are cutting out a public health insurance option that competes side-by-side with for-profit private plans:

Whatever happened to the moral question?
