I just watched this video and was shocked! I didn’t know that children were so adamant about their disdain for the health care system! Watch for yourself.

So You Call Yourself a Reformer, eh?

Year after year, affordable Health Care is a consistent election issue. Since President Clinton’s failed attempt to install his brand of universal coverage there has been no consensus among Democrats as how best to protect Americans from high insurance costs and under-insurance. President Bush seems to have a plan, and David Sirota uncovers its flaws.

An excerpt:

The storyline goes something like this: the President believes in “consumer-driven” health care whereby people save their own money in special accounts that they can use to pay for health care. The theory is that if citizens are actually encouraged to pay for their own health care costs directly – instead of through a third party insurance company – they will make more rational decisions about which procedures/tests/exams to have, and which not to have. We are led to believe that adding that supposedly “free market” force to the health care system will result in major cost savings for the entire system…

With the impending State of the Union Address tonight, the Democrats not only need to craft a concise message for 2006, but need to find language that will aid them in revealing Bush’s hidden agenda.
