National Health Care: This’ll Get Good
Tweet ThisOn the same day we read about "a half dozen Missouri legislators, all Democrats, [participating] in a conference call Thursday aimed at encouraging President Barack Obama to stick with his campaign promise to include a public-insurance option among his planned changes in the federal health care system"...
...We also read about former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle asking Obama "to scrap a federal public option for health insurance coverage... to get the votes needed to pass systematic change."
For the sake of our health care, long-term, let's keep hoping and praying that Senator Daschle gets his way. I'm a little scared of the public system putting the private system out of business and killing our quality and quantity of care (no pun intended.) Actually, I'm more scared of the government being the single-payer that gets to stand between us and our doctors.
From Verum Serum:
Let's keep an eye on this. And "Let's have an honest debate."
