Bloviator poll now up and running

by Eszter Hargittai on July 29, 2004

Don’t forget to cast your vote in the poll Ross is running over at The Bloviator about what phrase would offer “the best Progressive frame to encapsulate the commitment to remedying America’s myriad problems with health care”. The poll is a result of some lively discussions that occured here on CT while Ross was guest blogging with us earlier this week.

I’ll take whatever label, as long as it’s applied to my view of Breaux‘s plan. When I did bioethics, I liked “continuous health care coverage,” on the premise that no one in America has to be born outside a hospital; everyone will give a delivering mother a bed and a doctor. So why can’t we keep that going past birth?

My new preference is: “cooperative health care responsibility,” which I think is what happens with Breaux’s plan. The government forces people who can afford insurance to be in the pool, and takes care of those who cannot afford it.
