Re: Good grief
The bill puts the government in charge of health care in this country. You can define that however you like. As just one small example, there are almost 2,000 places in the bill where the Secretary of Health and Human Services is given powers that bypass Congress, and it pulls the insurance regulation authority away from the states and to the HHS. More here.
I'm not sure what your definition of "takeover" is. Taking near-absolute control of an industry qualifies in my book.
