The Washington Monthly has an illuminating article about the prevalent Republican approach to health care reform.
John Goodman is president of the National Center for Policy Analysis and helped write Sen. John McCain's health care policy. He and Tom Delay argue that everyone in America has access to health care - just go to the emergency room!
Emergency rooms are the least cost-effective way to provide health care, and in fact, shift the burden of paying for health care to those with health insurance.
How their solution is fiscally responsible is beyond me.
