By: Steven Brill     
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK • “A tour de force . . . a comprehensive and suitably furious guide to the political landscape of American healthcare . . . persuasive, shocking.”The New York Times 

America’s Bitter Pill is Steven Brill’s acclaimed book on how the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, was written, how it is being implemented, and, most important, how it is changing—and failing to change—the rampant abuses in the healthcare industry. It’s a fly-on-the-wall account of the titanic fight to pass a 961-page law aimed at fixing America’s largest, most dysfunctional industry. It’s a penetrating chronicle of how the profiteering that Brill first identified in his trailblazing Time magazine cover story continues, despite Obamacare. And it is the first complete, inside account of how President Obama persevered to push through the law, but then failed to deal with the staff incompetence and turf wars that crippled its implementation.
 
But by chance America’s Bitter Pill ends up being much more—because as Brill was completing this book, he had to undergo urgent open-heart surgery. Thus, this also becomes the story of how one patient who thinks he knows everything about healthcare “policy” rethinks it from a hospital gurney—and combines that insight with his brilliant reporting. The result: a surprising new vision of how we can fix American healthcare so that it stops draining the bank accounts of our families and our businesses, and the federal treasury.

Weird to humans, amazing to dogs!
Size: Large (Pack of 3), Color: Orange, Green & Yellow, Pattern Name: Dog
I find these expensive and weird, and yet I'm not the one chewing them and both of my dogs disagree. They feel they are amazing and tasty! They love to chew on these, and chew, and chew. Who am I to argue?

Defective cracked
Size: Large (Pack of 3), Color: Orange, Green & Yellow, Pattern Name: Dog
The stuff inside was cracked. It took my dog a few minutes to get it out. I bought these from other stores in person and didn't have any problem. It must be from shipping and handling.
