Addressing health care costs is still kicking a major can down the road.


None of the proposals from the keeping the old system to scrapping everything and replacing it with single payer still does not address the major problem of access to care. None of these addresses the major maldistribution of medical professionals both geographically and by specialty. As I posted once before, until we can come up with a solution to make providing primary care in Appalachia, the Mississippi Delta, etc., nearly as attractive to wiping out every last zit in Scarsdale, we're still going to have a major healthcare problem in this country.
