Less health care for more money: What's the catch? ~ By Ann Coulter

Commentary from WorldNetDaily
Ann Coulter By Ann Coulter Posted: December 16, 2009 ~ 6:02 pm Eastern © 2009 The New York Times' Nicholas Kristof recently wrote a column about John Brodniak of Oregon, who developed a cavernous hemangioma, causing him great pain as blood leaks into his brain.

In another article in the Times, William Yardley wrote about Melvin Tsosies – also of Oregon – who ended up with $200,000 in medical bills after having a heart attack.

But with 600,000 uninsured state residents and a "universal" health care program with only enough money to pay for about 24,000 of them, Tsosies is more likely to win a Powerball lottery. How can this be happening? Oregon already has "universal health care"! (Probably just a coincidence, but isn't Oregon also the only state with physician-assisted suicide?)
