USA: Unequal Healthcare for All

Yawwwnnn? Hardly!
The Health Care Mess is an extraordinary analysis that attempts to explain why the richest nation in the world spends the greatest amount of money for health care and yet 45+ millions Americans are uninsured. How can it be?
Do not expect some partisan, politicallly-motivated hatchet job. The authors are renowned experts in the field and have served many different presidents. They objectively recap how America has resisted national health insurance and the consequences of such attitudes.
Bottom line is we all pay, every day, healthy or not. The longer we wait to reform our health care system the worse it will get.
Here's what's really important: nothing will change until voters summon the collective will to demand change. Once that happens the politicians and bureaucrats will put away the band-aids and get to work rebuilding a health care system that is accessible, efficient and accountable.
I'm eager to hear what others have to say. One favor -- read the book first and see if you don't agree with the authors' recommendations.
