Special Comment: Keith Olbermann On Health Care Reform, pt. 1 - Daily Kos TV (beta)

Beware the anti-conservative jabs he takes. This is at least an argument to do something, but I would rather something be something effective.

Funny, I think I saw the exact same chart in the corporate health insurance offices. The titles were changed around though. :P

Medicare for everyone I suppose was one highlight, rather than some big new Democrat option.

big surprise, our health system is already run by government as it regulates the insurance industry and subsidences it since WW2, so more government involvement will clearly not reduces but worsen the mess.

It's definitely not that simple, and it took a combination of government/business to make this happen. When business can control the government, you have a problem.

that would only the case in a place where private owned business is outlawed, so communism and that is known to be a great system to live in

the problem is government reducing the market and therefor the competition and that can not be solved with more government and even less competition.

Certainly have more competition, but don't preclude a real, legitimate option to help people with fear.

I didn't say anyone was going to suffer x if they did or didn't act, where x is an action they should be afraid of. People are already suffering. I'm just looking for legitimate options.
