Losing In Fall OK With Democrats If It Means They Win Health Care
Mark Steyn's article summarizes the health care debate in simple terms, it is not about health care and not about controlling costs, it's about government and control.
Excerpt: I've been bandying comparisons with Britain and France, but that hardly begins to convey the scale of it. ObamaCare represents the government annexation of "one-sixth of the U.S. economy" — i.e., the equivalent of the entire British or French economy, or the entire Indian economy twice over.
Unprecedented Takeover
Nobody has ever attempted this level of centralized planning for an advanced society of 300 million people.
Even the control freaks of the European Union have never tried to impose a unitary "comprehensive" health care system from Galway to Greece. The Soviet Union did, of course, and we know how that worked out. Read Investors Daily article here.
