First Massachusetts, now maybe PA!
A democrat in the PA Senate has introduced a single payer, universal health act into the PA Senate, The Balanced and Comprehensive Health Care Reform Act. There was an article in my local paper saying that a similar bill will be introduced in the PA House soon.
Here is the Senate Bill
Here is the Bill’s Summary and description
Now I do not know if this has any chance of passing, probably not yet, but I suspect the time is fast coming when average folks will say enough is enough and start to push for such solutions, first in some states, but eventually on a national basis. It is a lot like many progressive ideas and solutions in that you know they are right, you know we are getting closer to getting the public to wake-up to this fact, but we just do not know how long the status quo greedy forces can hold on to their niche! Still, it is good to see ideas like this starting to happening in some areas!
