Re: David Cross on Health Care

Well, in all cases, people are able rto do that as individuals.

He seems to want them to band together and form a superchristian hospital.

And it is easy to find an easy target and say "how come you don't".  How
much time does he spend on what he does himself?  How much suffering does he
end as a comedian>

I'm inclined to agree. But I have three not-so-simple questions to ask:

- What is "universal health care"?
- How should we deliver it?
- How should we pay for it?

It's kind of like calling world hunger or world peace "simple", isn't
it? I mean, all we gotta do is feed the hungry and stop killing each
other, right?
