Nothing happens overnight... that's for sure.
House and senate stayed pretty right. Obama's office can kinda stack the supreme court, though.
The bottom line is that you have (or will get/develop) skills ppl will always need. If you are out to make $, then go get a 2yr computer programming or maintenance degree or go to biz school to be a biz owner/manager... way less student debt and higher top end. However, if you want a high satisfaction career with challenge, integrity, and less required travel, then health care is pretty awesome.
Dems are all about more govt programs (and therefore more tax $ and more ppl depending on govt programs), but at least with Medicare you know what you'll get. Of all the health plans, their rules are fairly clear, consistent, and spelled out. The problem is the govt plans pay like relative crap, but people who care about their health care will supplement their Medicare or opt for a private plan in order to get more qualified and/or less busy docs for their care anyways.
