:Govt run doesn't work"
This item is full of the usual right-wing bullshit. For example:
"Government can't even run Medicaid or Medicare." Really? Government is doing a great job on both of these programs. Medicare's administrative costs are a fraction of those in the private health care industry. And it provides decent health care for some 40 million U.S. senior citizens, at a fraction of what Big Health Inc. charges.
"Wake up before we lose every single liberty that our forefathers fought and died for." Irrelevant moralizing. What liberty? To pay ever-increasing health care premiums? To find, just before an expensive operation, that our insurance doesn't cover it? To be refused coverage because we once had a disease that is now cured? If that;s liberty, I'll take government "control."
