It is slowly, ever so slowly, sinking in: Health care is a lot more important to American families than Iraq.
Bush is fighting the congress over health care for children. (Those greedy sick children! Dont they know we need that money for stealth bombers we never use?)
GM is fighting the UAW over health care for workers and retirees. GM has now pushed the health care burden off itself and onto the union which is a historic move. I keep hoping the auto workers will force the government to face the issue of affordable health care and change the system.
At the same time, Hillary is giving more details about her own health care plans and why reform failed in 1992. She argues that Americans are too afraid of real change and want to keep employer-based health care. Data like that is not reassuring for proponents of true reform or for the GM/UAW accord.
