Healing the Sick (System)

March 5th, 2007

As you may know, Walter Reed Army Hospital has unleashed a frenzy upon the politicians of Washington. You see, the medical and housing facilities for our veterans were piss-poor and now everyone is indignant and predicting that things’ll get worse, things need to change, and so on.

The only thing missing in this righteous display of indignation is an article from the Republicans blaming it all on Bill Clinton.

What are my thoughts? Two — when will they start blaming Bill? and I hope this gets fixed and then we can turn our attention to healthcare for every American, something that I believe should be classic Federalist in execution. I believe that the states should each have their own healthcare programs that cover all of their citizens, that they should fund it for the most part, and that the federal government should provide a fund with grants to supplement their programs.

Would work better than whatever the hell’s going on in Washington now, and it’s better than anything national.
