Then Again, You Really Should Read This, Too!

The ever brilliant Jonathan Cohn has written a piece analyzing the Ryan deficit reduction plan. He concludes:

In short, the Republican vision for health care reform, as expressed by Ryan, is to limit federal spending on medical care, at levels far below what we spend today, and then let individuals make the best of the situation. By contrast, the health law calls for more gradual, more shared sacrifice by everybody involved with health care -- with a focus on promoting efficiency so that lower spending needn't result in lesser care. That's not only a more realistic approach to controlling costs. It's also a more humane one.

I agree. Jennifer
