Health Insurance Exchanges - Point, Counterpoint

Today's USA Today provides a point counterpoint take on the proposed health insurance exchanges in the pending health reform legislation. As both chambers of Congress head into committee to resolve differences between the two pieces of legislation, health insurance exchanges seem to be a mainstay, but intergovernmental issues are at issue. Some argue that state-based exchanges are the way to go, while others rail that one federal-based exchange would be best suited for best meeting the legislation's intent.
