Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass) is working on a plan that will bring comprehensive reform to the health care system. He’s doing this from his house, as he is recovering from Brain Surgery t hat he had in June. This was the money quote from the article:
“It’s not a question of arithmetic or accounting, it’s a question of priorities,” an aide said. “When AIG needs the money, somehow the money is found. When Freddie and Fannie need it, somehow the money is found. The theory is they’re too big to fail. It can certainly be argued that the health care system is too big to fail, but it’s failing for millions of people every day.”
This is the big question. Do we want to fix health care? Or do we want to keep the insurance companies happy? Whatever the answer is, it’s nice to see Senators working to try and fix this.
