Revised list of reform summaries

for what its worth, here is a list of some of the best summaries that I have seen on the reform bill.  I have ordered them in terms of my assessment of their usefulness.  As indicated, I think it crucial to put together a comprehensive communications strategy to turn around the polls and ensure that future sessions of congress do not kill this bill.  The only key piece missing is debunking the false myths, such as death panels, government takeover, coming between doctor and patient, etc. 

1) 1) times magazine

this is the best package, has a simple set of charts, plus a good article on the cost efficiency issues which has been missing for the most part from other reviews.


2) kaiser summary
