    he did not have the votes needed to pass it, he tried to work with republicans

    "Obama, GOP's Snowe work on health care compromise"

    http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/02/health.care.compromise/

    "The compromise plan would lack a government-run public health insurance option favored by Obama, but would leave the door open to adding that provision down the road under an idea proposed by Snowe, the sources said."

    If you don't pay for it it's free for you.

    They're not allowed to charge patients for services paid for by the government.

    works for me, any for profit hospital that steals government money from public hospitals would have to offer free service then

    No, they're paid the same as a public hospital. It stops government from using hospitals to ration care.

    ok, that works, as long as they do not charge more than the public hospitals rates that the tax payers paid for
