    I'm not THAT familiar with the health bill, mostly because it's in constant flux. So if anyone could do me a favor and explain how it fixes the problem with healthcare right now.. namely, cost. That's the real issue here. We need to stem the costs of healthcare. My grandma spent 10 days in a hospital with no surgery and the cost was 250,000. So where does this bill reduce costs cause as far as I can tell it's going to raise costs. I hope I'm wrong but please if someone could explain the goal of this bill. Sure killing 'pre-existing condition' is a good thing, but couldn't they just do that as it's own thing? I'm not feigning ignorance here, but if the issue is the cost of healthcare then how does this bill fix it?
