Government Run Healthcare

The New York Times article below describes quite well what we would be in for if we get the universal/government run healthcare the democrats are advocating. Actually I believe it would be worse since in general the military runs a pretty tight ship. I suspect the care recieved is actually better than what we are being led to believe with occasional mishaps like described in the article and the conditions at Walter Reed.

Hi, came by way of your comment at The Reference Frame. Here in TN they started TennCare about 10 or so years ago as a 'model' of Hillary Clinton's healthcare ideas. As you might expect, it has been a complete disaster. The state is practically bankrupted by it and the insurance companies that have administered it have been corrupt. There are endless problems with it.
