Affordable Choices

Three Congressional committees working together have formulated a proposal called America's Affordable Health Choices Act. They always name these things so that if, for example, someone finds anything wrong with the proposal, they can say, "What? You're against Americans having choices of affordable health care?" But on first glance, this one looks like it might live up to its name.

Here's a website that will tell you all about it. There may or may not be problems with the plan but if this thing goes like the Hillary Clinton plan of '93, there'll be opponents who'll go on news shows and say, "This bill would allow doctors to punch your grandmother in the stomach," because they figure neither you nor those who interview them will actually look at the bill to check if that's so. There was an awful lot said about "Hillarycare" that was just flat-out lying.
