Health care is an issue n3ear and dear to my heart. Well, it's near and dear to my diabetic eyes. My heart just checked out okay. But I want a comprehensive national health care system. And pronto.
But as a nation, we're not quite ready for it. Yet. It's baby steps time and not because Obama is timid. There's a much bigger problem that he has to tackle first. Let me put it this way...
Would you have wanted the Bush Administration running a comprehensive national health care system?
Shudder to think. You can paint your own nightmare scenarios pretty easily. The first steps in getting a health care system we can count on is to get a government we can count on. Restore the rule of law, set up transparency, get rid of the lobbyists. In other words, Obama's current agenda.
