I usually hate infographics and here is another one just littered with reasons to go crazy. But focus only on the very bottom:
The changes Brill suggests would allow the US to provide better care at lower costs without substituting the kind of government-provider system typical in comparison countries.
Holy smokes. This is the previous post in spades. So we set up the straw man that nationally delivered health care is bad, so this guy is just saving us from those horrors. I’d quite frankly prefer that (Sophie’s) choice. Here are the brilliant ways we are going to avoid “government health care”:
I don’t know what to say. I really don’t.
It has always fascinated me that the government restricts competition in health insurance and then is surprised that the resulting coverage is expensive and inefficient.
And after getting that outcome, the modern liberal solution is for the government to become the sole provider, and then we will all be “surprised” when the absolute lack of co,petition leads to even more expensive, less efficient health care?
Leftists/collectivists hate monopolies, unless it’s the government. In which case they adore them.
When I was in twelfth grade, my US history teacher (a graduate from Annapolis and a conservative) assigned reading Time, so we would keep up. He tested us on current events, and we used Time and the New York Times (on microfilm in the Lehigh library for research papers.
I think the last time I read Time was perhaps ten years ago in my opthamologist’s office. The issue was a few months outdated, and was filled with editorial opinions presented as news that were, shall we say, predictions that never materialized. Henry Luce is dead, and so is Francisco Franco. Jay Carney, formerly a Time writer, is now BHO’s press secretary, but enough of ad hominem argumentation.
They really think everybody is an idiot, which I still believe is not true. Everybody I know is not, but some have yet to clarify that they are being fed b******* by outfits like Time.
