The government takeover of health care will go down in history as the worst piece of legislation to emerge from a Congress held in general disdain by the American people.

Possibly from this Congress. Although they still have time to pass something even worse.

It's not the worst law in American history, of course. That would probably be the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which led directly and almost inexorably to the Civil War and 640,000 dead Americans. An equivalent number today would be around 6.5M.
