Infrequently Noted

Then please do yourself and your family a favor and read this piece by T.R. Reid on how health care in the rest of the world actually works (hint: better, cheaper, faster).

It distresses me that our health-care debate has been launched from false premises and has deteriorated from there. We cannot ignore the ongoing harm being done, cannot deny that others are doing it better (across the board), and must not succumb to the false equivalencies and misdirections being vacuously peddled. Now is the time to arm yourself against the tragedy of ideology with real, observable facts.
