will repubs stop calling healthcare reform socialist since health insurance companies will still exist?

or will they just continue to yell loud and wrong.
--------------------
I don't know what republicans will say, but here's a democrat's perspective. Large companies will certainly pay the 8% penalty rather than continue to provide medical benefits. Under the president's plan, that would place most Americans who currently have employer provided health care into the "coop" portion of the plan. But, most insurance companies are unlikely to provide insurance with the regulations proposed by the plan. That will place most Americans into the "5%" Obama spoke about. It takes a couple of steps, but it's clearly socializing the system. But then, you really didn't want the answer, did you?
