Real Solutions to Health Care

In Obama's September 9th address to congress, along with a long string of half-truths and lies, were a few keen observations; specifically, that costs are too high (duh!) and that there is a lack of healthy competition in health insurance and health services.

The hypocrites in Washington (Dems & Repubs) love to scapegoat on private industry; and you wont find a defense of insurance companies on this blog. However, it's government regulation that is the cause of much of this. The suggestion that more government involvement in healthcare will solve the problem is absurd.

An excellent overview of the real problems contributing to the health care crisis and solutions to these problems is in a white-paper published by Gregory Conko & Phillip Klein, Political Malpractice. The entire paper can be downloaded at:
