There's no doubt that just about every one of Mr. Bush policy initiatives are failures both domestically and internationally, but he's a victim of his own good ideas. If Jim Collins were a political writer he'd categorize Mr. Bush as "Great idea, horrible execution", which certainly fits. If you're a capitalist, which I am, you know that anytime the government runs anything bad things are bound to happen. Unfortunately the absence of the government is no guarantee of success. That means hybrid solutions, where there's clear market failure, are the way to go. In the case of health care the answer seems to lie in consumer driven health care (CDHC) and responsible fiscal policy that makes a place for massive costs to come. In short, Mr. Bush had the right idea but the wrong implementation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:182006 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
