Seniors turn up volume on health -- and health care | StarTribune.com

Seniors turn up volume on health -- and health care | StarTribune.com
This is a fun article on how seniors view health care reform debates. People say kids say the darndest things. Well, I am getting old and I think seniors do to.
These quotes from two of them pretty well sums up the debate going on right now:

"You know, it's really not that complex," Benevides said. "If you believe, as I do, that health care is not only a right for everyone but beneficial socially and economically for the whole country, then you reorganize it so that the people -- through our government -- are in charge. We call the shots, not the insurance companies or the drug companies or the hospitals, but all of us."

Jacobs agreed that the issue is "not complex," asking: "Do you want health care run by government bureaucrats or by the industries that actually understand how to do it?"
