Robin Toner's article in today's New York Times reiterates the importance of the health care issue in the 2008 Presidential Election.
In case anyone had forgotten, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, premiums for family coverage have increased some 87 percent since 2000 and the number of Americans without health insurance has grown from 37 million when the Clinton Administration first confronted health care costs to 45 million, according to recent Census Bureau estimates.
Unfortunately it does appear that the issue is being treated to partisan politics with Democrats tending to side along the lines of government-mandated care and Republicans shooting for free-market solutions, but at least both parties seem to agree that this issue won't tolerate being ignored.■
Wait until 2014 when health care is free...
