I found this article by Jeffrey S. Flier the dean of Harvard Medical School. What I find interesting, is he compares the current healthcare bill to the Massachusetts' plan that "suffers from problems of cost, access and quality, and needs major reform", after just a couple of years of being in effect. And he also states "Worse, currently proposed federal legislation would undermine any potential for real innovation in insurance and the provision of care. It would do so by overregulating the health-care system in the service of special interests", is that what they say it will fix?
I just do not get why this congress is such a rush. Less than a week after they release the new and improved 1,990 page bill, they call for a vote and pass it. did the member really read and understand what they are voting for? Is it because the want to enact the quickly to Americans? No, because it will not go into effect untill 2014. So why the rush?
Please read:
Health 'Reform' Gets a Failing Grade
The changes proposed by Congress will require more draconian measures down the road. Just look at Massachusetts.
