The Health Care Debate Heats Up.

Some interesting reading(and watching) from today's news on the health care debate:

Arnold Kling writes:

One illusion about healthcare reform is that the only problem we have to tackle is the uninsured. The larger problem is that those of us with insurance have too much coverage, so that neither patients nor doctors have to pay attention to costs when making decisions. That is going to have to change.

And then Robert Samuelson writes:

It’s hard to know whether President Obama’s health-care ‘reform’ is naive, hypocritical or simply dishonest. Probably all three. The president keeps saying it’s imperative to control runaway health spending. He’s right. The trouble is that what’s being promoted as health-care ‘reform’ almost certainly won’t suppress spending and, quite probably, will do the opposite.

And here was Dr. Ron Paul on CNN this morning.
