How would you get by on $45,000 a year with no insurance and two kids with severe brain injuries? Maybe somebody should ask Tony Snow.
  • Universal Healthcare v. insurance companies

    Buried in this story is the fact that the family in question was turned down by health insurers due to pre-existing conditions. For my dollar, this should be against the law. And while we're arguing about SCHIP, we're actually arguing about a red herring, which is how the health care industry is administered in the nation. Via insurance companies. Get rid of them; nationalize healthcare. It's time. It's more than time. It's the only solution to the problem. Where are our brains? What are we so afraid of? Rather, what are our politicians so afraid of?
