What CRISIS?

pl -ses
1. a crucial stage or turning point in the course of anything( See Obama's career)

2. a time of extreme trouble or danger
Crisis is a liberal FEAR word that has no place in the current situation.
Health care COSTS needs some adjustments. American health care TREATMENT is the best in the world. All statements to the contrary are LIES! And even if they were true, American health care TREATMENT is still fine.
Insurance Companies are obummers new villain of the moment. Insurance company premiums AND profits are and have been controlled by Government regulation for years.
If NO bill is passed this year or next or the next, our health care system will carry on still needing some adjustments. But it still will NOT be in CRISIS.
It is a MEDIUM HIGH priority problem to be fixed as FUNDS are available.
Bill and Hillary said CRISIS 16 years ago. Nothing got fixed and we still have the finest care available and still no crisis. The difference is they did not bet their careers on health care.
The health care machine needs plugs and the timing set. It does not need to go to the crusher like a clunker in favor of a new model, YET TO BE, designed by a committee that knows NOTHING about designing an efficient machine.
