What's a good unbiased plain English explanation for HR 3950?
There will be plain English explanations forthcoming now that there's final stuff that's been voted on (what happens with reconciliation is TBD), but they'll necessarily be long. And it'll take a while to come up with them.
But don't worry, this issue will now suck most of the nation's political oxygen for this year and probably through 2013 and perhaps beyond. You'll be hearing all about it.
For now, I'd recommend checking out Keith Hennessey's blog, he's pretty good at this sort of thing: http://keithhennessey.com/
E.g. here's a good item on the reconciliation bill as of the 18th: http://keithhennessey.com/2010/03/18/understanding-health-bi...
