Obama's Health Reform Latest

The New York Times: Reports on the problems for Obama plan to reform the Health service in the USA, the NYT writes the following, " Democrats in Congress have grown increasingly nervous about the cost of health-care reform, estimated at $1 trillion over ten years. " Its not the reforming that is the problem, it can be argued that the Health System in the USA needs reform due to costs and the increase over the years, also the need to cover those that can not afford health insurance, that is a morale question, no the question is how to pay for the reform. The Liberal Leadership in the Congress want to tax the rich, in a good economic climate that can be argued is a morale choice, that those that are rich should pay for those that are not well off, but this is not a good economic climate, also the Congressional Budget Office has stated that even with the reform the costs will go up. Thus you have an election promise for health care reform when you are faced with an economy in the toilet, two wars, Afghanistan and Iraq and the threat of a war with Iran by the end of the year. Thus what do you do, you need health reform but you need it in stages, thus it can be argued that the Obama White House should do health reform in stages. Thus on the morale side, cover those that can not afford heath insurance first, thus you need to means test individuals, those earning less that ten thousand dollars a year should get free health care, then when the economy has gotten back on its feet you deal with the middle group, if they want help the government should help, then we come to the Uber rich, they should pay all their own costs and pay a surcharge on profits, but only when the economy is great, the boom years. Also these reforms should be revisable in bad years. That's my answer to the health care problem in the USA.
