Hi Paula,
I don't have the answers to your questions, but I think a good source for non-partisan, accurate information is Kaiser Network. Health News. It includes summaries and links to various news sources and they also do their own analyses of many issues . Here are some of the pages on health care reform. you can also search by keywords (i ffound an analysis if IRS' role.) There's lots of rumors and half truths floating around, and aspects of HCR bill that haven't been well explained. Good idea to try and find and share the facts .
