Health Care!
It is an issue in which Capitolism has had its greatest success and its greatest failure. Republicans have not faired well in the arena of Health Care. Since 1960 health care has exceeded the rate of inflation by close 500%. The people hurt the worst are people in the lower middle class who are self-insured. It takes almost 50% of their Salary to provide adequate health insurance. Capitolism has provided the United States with some of the best Medical Care in the World. Capitolism has provided the United States with the most expensive insurance in the world. Something must be done to curb these unreasonable costs of medicine in the United States. Having set on our local hospital board for over six years and presently sitting on the finance committee for four years, I am shocked at the costs of medicine. The Democrats can legitimately make some real ways on the costs of Health Care. I hope the Republicans understand that this can be a real issue and do something serious about this crisis.
