About Me

Happily married middle-aged mid-western progressive Democrat living in a very conservative part of the country. My political frustrations lead me to write about politics and life.

An update on the Unaffordable System

Here are some macro numbers to add some weight to the premise of my previous post about the United States' healthcare problem being more about the system for how it is delivered and paid for.  If you only look at the charts and don't read the actual article, remember that the figures for total governament spending in places like England and Canada covers ALL the citizens whereas in the US governament spending only covers Medicare, Medicaid, and VA.

Follow the link and check out the story and figures.
