Universal insurance is the wrong idea


It's not about medicine, it never was
Let's talk about the one part of medical reform that Congress doesn't want to think about.

The costs.

As long as government guarantees payment at a given price, there is never going to be meaningful reform.

As long as government treats medical insurance as one-size-fits-all, health care will always be rationed.

If people can choose their own computers, they are perfectly capable of deciding what care if any they need. All without the government holding a gun to their head.

Yes, there should be catastrophic health care insurance, AS LONG AS GOVERNMENT IS NOT INVOLVED.

Otherwise, let people pay for the services they choose.

Because doctors won't listen to patients as long as government foots the bill.

So why is the President and the Congressional Democrats pushing universal health care?

It's not because they care about your welfare.

It's because they want to control you.

Remember the Second Golden Rule. "He who pays the bills makes the rules."

Better yet, remember this.

"In every generation there are those who want to rule well - but they mean to rule. They promise to be good masters - but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Let the free market rule, government interference keeps making it worse.
