Perhaps 50 years ago, one of the presidents of Chrysler Corporation is reputed to have said, "There are no large problems, just combinations of small problems."
Rather than a cumbersome, potentially bankrupting, 2,000-page health care reform bill that no person understands, Congress should address only two issues for starters: Major tort reform and removing state line blockage of national health care insurance competition. Two years should be allotted for this 60 percent of the health care problem to be up and running before tackling the other 40 percent of the problems; one bill at a time.
If this method were used, even our legislators would understand the bills before voting on them.
A deficit neutral $2 trillion legislation, $6,000 for every adult, teenager, child and infant in the nation, is impossible without confiscatory taxation!
