The health care reform bill, as it stands, is probably dead unless Nancy Pelosi can pull a miracle out of her ass and convince the House Democrats to approve the Senate bill. The fallback option is to break it up and pass some of the more popular provisions piecemeal. So I am curious to see which of these ideas you Republicans/conservatives might be inclined to support:
Banning or limiting discrimination based on preexisting conditions, gender, and age
Ending the "lifetime maximums" on health insurance policies
Requiring all Americans to purchase health insurance, with exemptions for the poor
Increased assistance to help the poor purchase insurance plans
Eliminating the antitrust exemption for health insurance companies
Taxing some/all health insurance benefits as regular income
