Paul Krugman: Unacceptable Realities
. The hysteria over Obamacare is being well documented
what I see a lot in my inbox (and in my reading): the furious insistence that nothing resembling a government guarantee of health insurance can possibly work.
Thats a curious belief to hold, given the fact that every other advanced country has such a guarantee
. but nothing makes these people as angry as the suggestion that Obamacare might actually prove workable.
And its going to get worse. For two months, thanks to the botched rollout, their delusions seemed confirmed by reality. Now that things are getting better, however, you can already see the rage building
.
. what you have to conclude is that there are a large number of people who find reality the reality that governments are actually pretty good at providing health insurance
just unacceptable
