DK & Co.,

You are cordially invited to visit a thread I started today titled "Concerned about health care?" In that thread you will be introduced to a link to a show on NPR's Fresh Air. There are two interviews. The first has to do with a very ill patient who was paying for a plan that he thought would cover him for catastrophic illness.

The second interview is with an econ professor from Princeton who tells it like it is. The guy is savvy and does not sound to me like some kind of socialist like those who are spotted under every rock these days. This guy is a realist. Economics is his area and he says we better fix this mess and fix it fast. And he knows no fix is perfect.

My thread is not in political. I just did not want to put it in political. It is far bigger than political. Too bad the politicians cannot recognize that.

So anyway, I just wanted to invite you to have a listen to some things that I hope you will find interesting. At least worth giving a little thought.

Hey, on second thought, you know what I am going to do? I am going to link that radio show from NPR right here in your thread, too.

Here it is. I'll leave the light on for you.

(edit on 3/13: This link has changed. You have to click on "past shows" and go to March 11 and you will find it.)
