Affordable High-quality Medical
Security for All Americans.
Dr. Alan Sager, PhD, sketches a plan for
health care for all in the United States. We currently spend five times
as much on healthcare as defense. That spending should be enough to make
medical security for everyone the easiest problem to solve in our
nation. Today, though, the political path of least resistance is to just
throw more money to allow unequal and ineffective business-as-usual to
limp along. But that money will run out within the next decade. So we
need to be ready with solid ways to stabilize and reform health care.
Unfortunately, health care in the U.S. lacks both a functioning free
market and effective government oversight. Monopolies and bureaucracies
rarely work well for those who rely on them. We therefore have to
develop and test simple and trustworthy ways to cover everyone, contain
cost, pay doctors and hospitals and other caregivers, and make sure we
have the right caregivers in the right places.
