HealthCare Reform- The Long Wait Continues
We generally try to steer-clear of talking politics in these newsletters. We've found that talking politics will generally get you immediately labeled into one of the two major camps. And, when you're labeled on one side, the folks on the other side don't listen anymore. We want both sides to listen. Such is the life we lead in partisan politics.
That aside, health care is too important of an issue for us. So, we have to talk about it. Please, just don’t label us in a particular camp.
In 2007 Comptroller General David Walker told 500 attendees at a meeting held by the Federation of American Hospitals, "If there's one thing that can bankrupt America, its health care." Especially with the fragility of our economy today, we all have a stake in this one. And, something needs to be done.
With the 2008 Presidential Election in full-swing we wanted to take a look at where both of the major-party candidates stand today in the health care debate. More important, we wanted to assess the likelihood the proposals both parties have on the table will have in making a dent in the health care crisis (yes, we believe it is a crisis) we are experiencing today. We were just curious.
