Inflection Point

This is the year that serious health care legislation comes before Congress and, if successful, the President, at the President's behest, which is to say doing the nation's wishes, having voted for this major platform plant, albeit without having had to agree on the form of that health care relief.

So as the meetings are happening and the existing health insurance industry is getting it's say behind closed doors, it's fair to ask why Single Payer, whether you're sold on it yet or not, is not at the table.

Ed Schultz is the only cable news guy bringing it up...yet?:



This is the first inflection point on national health insurance since Hillary took her shot, and that before that when Richard Nixon sold us down the river, per the recording of his conversation with John Ehrlichman the day they launched the HMO business.



Will Single Player be a real part of the debate?

Yes indeed. Well that goes against this whole re-evaluating Richard Nixon thing now doesn't. Because you, only Nixon could have gone to China.
