Worst legislation since...
QOTD
"I want everybody to have maximum care at the best price. And that's why I want the government out of it completely."Sure, it's uncomfortable being aligned with goofy Ron Paul, but so be it. The logic of these two quotes is ironclad.
- Ron Paul, congressman, source
QOTD2
"The government is involved in health care and education and that's where you have the greatest amount of inflation."I guess I'm officially a crackpot. Woo-hoo!
- Ron Paul
This is a nice summary article: Universal Health Care Isn't Worth Our Freedom
An observant (and hot) young lady pegged it yesterday, "The real effect of this stuff won't be felt until 5 years down the road or so." True. And when somebody argues that the solution to our health care problems is to expand Medicare and Medicaid, they lack any credibility. Such a statement doesn't make a lick of sense.
jeez... yow, bill

I think the Szasz analysis in WSJ gets the issue very very wrong. The argument is very similar to the argument made against "welfare moms" and the homeless, who our old buddy Reagan said make the choice to be homeless.

Yeah, except nationalized health care works in countries that have it. In fact, far better than health care here, despite higher costs here.
I wrote a response to Szasz here.
Clint, you probably gathered that I disagree, and I have my blog to retort so I won't here.
I thank you for the thoughtful comment... and nice blog yourself!
thanks... yow, bill
