News and Commentary re: the great health care debate.

Fox News reports that Medicare Trustees say program will spend more in this year (2009) than it takes in. And team P/R/O want us to let them federalize everyone's health care? WTF???

Cato has a peice that talks about how and why our health care system, for all its faults, is much better than any other system, including Britain and Canada.

Editorial Summary - 11 May 2009


Richard Posner is a big name in Law & Economics and is a Federal judge.  When he speaks, I listen. Period.  Here, he tells of what caused the current economic recession, how severe it is, and what can be done to get us out of the recession.  His ideas are clearly more conservative than what is coming out of P/R/O (Pelosi/Reid/Obama), yet phrased in a way that might appeal to independents and some moderate Democrats.
