Well, we certainly lost a big one. Despite hopes I share that this Novembers polls will help mitigate the damage, this giant leap towards socialized medicine is a big loss for the Republican Party, and for the American people. And I say leap towards socialized medicine as this bill is not nearly the Lefts end game. Its not meant to work, its meant to destroy the private health insurance industry, an industry that realized this only too late. Its meant to help bring on, through socialized medicine, further breaking of the budget, and further conditioning of the American people to dependency and an expectation that government will provide for all their needs, the full European style welfare state. While it is obvious we must fight this, its not as obvious how. This note offers a few thoughts on the matter. ~ Cliff Asness of AQR (Quant Hedge Fund)

Yes.
Yes, indeed.
