Not sure whats happened in the meantime but that article hadnt been substantively updated since Nov 2009. also it provides only one source, and that a secondary one,* dated July 2009.

* edit - well, ok, it's the Quakers.

you need to give some people credit for doing their homework as much as you, I enjoy reading your perspective on things and you are well informed, but everyone develops opinions, some the same and some different, thats what makes it interesting.

To the best of my knowlesdge, HHS still hasn't set the requirements for what will be considered an appropriate plan under Obamacare. Like most bills, there never is enough details when it gets passed. This is when all the bribery among our elected leaders and the lobbying groups can take place in negotiating what will and what won't be required

I apologize for being rude, but this topic wasn't a matter of opinion or perspective. Doesnt it drive you nuts when you see things that arent true being spread as if they are? Well, me too.
