From The Socialist's Handbook

While I somewhat agree that changes to current Medicare system need to be made, I found this passage from the Des Moines Register's editorial board sadly humorous:

Perhaps it was the intent of the 2003 Congress to dismantle this public program through privatization [of Medicare].

Today's Congress should take steps to prevent that from happening.

Aaargh!! Quick, someone stop the privatization of government programs before they find a more cost efficient, better solution!

I feel like I am banging my head against the wall, but I can't make this clear enough: all problems are NOT solved by greater government involvement. Regardless of what the communists at the Register believe.
