"Congressional Democrats are between a rock and a hard place. They desperately want to pass a bill they can label “universal coverage,” but they have no coherent plan for making health-care provision more efficient and less costly. Thus, expanding coverage with new federal subsidies for a large segment of the population in the current cost environment is prohibitively expensive. Presented with these facts, the lead Democratic Senators could have chosen to write a more sensible reform plan focused first on building a functioning marketplace in which cost-conscious consumers would drive out unnecessary costs. But, instead, they have decided to plow ahead with their “universal coverage” plan, only now they want to impose the high cost of it on struggling workers. Their only hope is that the bill will pass before the public discovers what they are up to. " http://corner.nationalreview.com/pos...Q0OGExOTdmOGU= Wow...the National Review is not in favor of universal health coverage. What a frippin' surprise! What will the Republican conservative movement do next? Announce that 70% of them still favor Sarah Palin for president in 2012? Wait...they already did that! In a way, I'm glad Bill Buckley is dead. Seeing what has become of his once highly regarded publication for political thinkers of all stripes would kill him. Just for you, Tom: http://tinyurl.com/msq7om |
