Is This More Than Anyone Can Stand To Read About Health Insurance? UPDATES
This item from Overheard in New York:
Redhead: I wish I was a pirate.
Brunette: No, you don't. Pirates are dirty. They don't have toothbrushes.
Redhead: Yeah... But they drink so much alcohol that it kills the bacteria in their mouths anyway.

Now that The Simpsons have replaced SICKO as movie topic in my house, perhaps it’s possible to try to think through how to put health insurance on front and center on the agenda of Congress. I hope not to understate the difficulty of doing this. Some people, much better informed than I am on the nuts & bolts of health insurance, seem to think that universal single payer is just around the corner. For this view more hopeful than mine, check out this interview in The American Prospect of founders of Physicians For A National Health Program .
