‘The government has no business being in the health insurance business. I dont care how good the plan is.’
There are two ways to handle a broken car ...
1. Crush it in the compactor.
2. Fix it.
The VOTER does not want to crush this car in the compactor. You and I could see the virtue in ‘cold turkey’ free market restoration, but there is so much public pressure to keep some kind of healthcare safety net for the poor that there WILL be a safety net.
So who is the Don Quixoti who is campaigning to let people die in the streets? I can’t find one at the moment.
There is a third alternative; make it worse. If it can’t be fixed then I’d rather crush it than make it worse.
