So What’s Your Plan?
Okay, the President spoke last night about health care reform. We all know what he said. However, here’s my question.
If you don’t like his plan, which is cool, what do you suggest we do to reform the health care system?
- For example, if you’re going to advocate tort reform, be specific. Do you want caps on all damages or just non-economic ones? What standard of negligence should we adopt?
- If you support a mandatory insurance provision, then how do you collect from those people who won’t pay into the system voluntarily? Details.
- How should we deal with the fact that most of the health care we consume is at the end of our lives and should those resources be used to prolong life or merely make us comfortable in our last days? Enlighten me, please.
I ask these questions, because frankly the shouting has gotten a little old and it’s time for reasonable people, of good will and differing opinion, to come to the table and act grown ups.
Who’s ready to sit at the big kids’ table?
