We can do better than this. America can no longer afford to pretend this problem does not exist. As a doctor and former governor, I know there are no easy answers; however, the current course we are on is setting the health care system up for complete collapse. After all, the British, French, Germans, Canadians, Spanish, Greeks, Japanese, Irish, Italians, Israelis, Dutch, Swedes, Norwegians, Finns and even the Costa Ricans have health insurance for all their people. So should we.
-----------------------------------


take special note that the Israelis ALL have health care

is the empire paying for that?

1. Sure... We need to protect "the only Democracy in the ME". We DON'T
want democracy in the USA. But it has ALWAYS amazed me that so many Americans don't want Health Coverage for everybody (one of the arguments I have heard against it is: it is socialistic!!!!!)... the repugs have done a good job of brainwashing or the majority of Americans are daffy.

2. His most powerful stump line.
If Kerry brings us near-universal health care, I'll apologize for my doubts. I fully expect a Clinton re-dux. Talk and no walk.
