” …do something patterned after a system that’s working (Texas) that will actually encourage routine health care costs to move back into equilibrium? I guess that’s just too foreign a concept for our alleged “representative”, eh?”

Doing so would mean you could make some statistical comparisons, the last thing the Fed would want. If you just pull a plan out of the old brown winkie, you can allow a few tens of thousand die before they would have without the plan, save a billion and a half, the proudly announce to the public that you’ve saved a billion. That way no politician ever has to deal with an unfunded mandate in their personal life that might distract them from our good. It’s like the money allocated to the levees in New Orleans, it didn’t much get spent on levees, but it all went for the good of the people.

good points
