That’s the name of the game that journalists and pundits will be playing as the country tries to get its arms around the more than 2,400 pages of health care reform legislation that President Obama signed yesterday.

You’re a single guy without children? Tough, your policy must cover pediatric services. You’re a woman who can’t have children? Tough, your policy must cover maternity services. You’re a teetotaler? Tough, your policy must cover substance abuse treatment. (Add your own violation of personal freedom here.) (Section 1302).
