Health 'Reform' Gets a Failing Grade
The changes proposed by Congress will require more draconian measures down the road. Just look at Massachusetts.
As
the dean of Harvard Medical School I am frequently asked to comment on
the health-reform debate. I'd give it a failing grade.
Instead of forthrightly dealing with the fundamental problems,
discussion is dominated by rival factions struggling to enact or defeat
President Barack Obama's agenda. The rhetoric on both sides is
exaggerated and often deceptive. Those of us for whom the central issue
is health—not politics—have been left in the lurch. And as controversy
heads toward a conclusion in Washington, it appears that the people who
favor the legislation are engaged in collective denial.
