Fred Hiatt supports single payer! What's next?
Today's WashPost editorial on health care gives us a Fred Hiatt special: basic factual error. The editorial -- urging House members to vote 'yes' on Sunday -- has this:
The first chief benefit would be to cover the uninsured, ending America's position as the only major industrialized democracy that does not provide health insurance to its citizens.That would be funny if they actually meant what they wrote and did support a system in which the U.S. government 'provided' health insurance to its citizens. Of course, the bill on the table does not do so; it provides subsidies to some citizens, which will cover part of the cost of buying insurance through a private insurer.
