The filibuster rule has been used by both parties to block unpopular rules. What they gain today could become their death when the Republicans eventually win a majority. I would prefer no action rather than divided action. Without the filibuster the Democrats could p a health care bill today and have the whole thing scrapped at tremendous cost in just 2 years. With the filibuster rule Social Security has lasted over 60 years even though it has always been opposed by the Republicans.
