If this current "reform" is allowed to go full steam ahead medicare will eventually be privatized.

People refuse to look at the push to privatization of government that has proceeded full steam ahead since the 70's. Our opponents plan a decade or two ahead, building on decades of work, and we plan for the next election, blaming everything on the recent past, exhibiting the foresight of a gnat.

I'm getting caught up on our education secretary. Being of the generation that grew up pre-reagan, I am horrified at what passes for progressive currently. Just another giant 30 year scam culminating in the co-opting of progressive democracy by neoliberal privatization.
