Medicare Reform.. Bush promised that in his campaign.. Its not the best but it is a start. We have to start somewhere... At least now, the Dims are left without their.. "The evil repbs are going to kill seniors" mantra which worked so well in the last elections especially here in Florida and scared the seniors to go vote for Gore...

It's really a lost cause of making the government smaller. In a decade or so, "small government" will no longer be an issue. This country is changing, and it will never go back to the days of limited government. What's more, this bill increases the expectations of the citizens in this country of what the government is supposed to be and what it is supposed to provide. This is a slippery slope which will lead to other legislation increasing spending and increases the population of the government. Down the road, it will also require tax increases.
