I think it is a good analysis of the problem but not anything I could see that suggests how the financing will occur and still balance the budget. God bless.

Uwe Reinhardt has probably addressed that in a previously written opinion piece, and if not, will in the future. His essays can be found in the New York Times, or he can be "googled." He has written and lectured extensively on health care reform.

Until something appears in proposed legislation that shows how the budget will be balanced I remain a skeptic. Congress has a way of adding their own pet projects to change the effect of any legislation. This is independent of political party. God bless.

Congress reconvenes September 8, 2009 and will continue to work on health care reform legislation.
