No one has said the healthcare/health insurance industry doesn't need a fix, but it certainly doesn't need what barry has in mind and it looks like barrys plan is FAILING....looks like the WH will be giving up on the "public option" or the government run healthcare plan anf the Death panels will be gone...now to work on more of the B/S like the government "Parent Consultaion" plan for new parents, coverage for abortions, coverage for illegals, and a few other details.....

White House appears ready to drop 'public option'
WASHINGTON (AP) - Apparently ready to abandon the idea, President Barack Obama's health secretary said Sunday a government alternative to private health insurance is "not the essential element" of the administration's health care overhaul.
The White House indicated it could jettison the contentious public option and settle on insurance cooperatives as an acceptable alternative, a move embraced by some Republicans lawmakers who have strongly opposed the administration's approach so far
"I'm always ready to go back to the bargaining table," Hatch said. "Heck, I've probably helped pass more bipartisan health care legislation than anybody I know."
That legislation, however, seemed likely to strike end-of-life counseling sessions. Former Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin has called the session "death panels," a label that has drawn rebuke from her fellow Republicans as well as Democrats.
Even so, Sebelius said the proposal was likely to be dropped from the final bill.
"We wanted to make sure doctors were reimbursed for that very important consultation if family members chose to make it, and instead it's been turned into this scare tactic and probably will be off the table," she said. "And that's not good news for the American public and not good news for family members."
Sebelius spoke on CNN's "State of the Union" and ABC's "This Week." Shelby and Conrad appeared on "Fox News Sunday." Hatch was interviewed on "This Week."
