A History of Govt Involvement in Health Care

0 votes

Although this article is from 1993, it provides a decent look at how the government involved itself with the health care industry and brought us to within 16 years from where we are today.

I thought this might be an interesting article to bring back from the past, as congress is looking at health care reform.

If anybody knows of a more recent and accurate article on the history of health care, please post a link, as I would love to read it.

Thanks.

the Federal government has proven itself to be so loving and warm and fuzzy!

I guess we can't always take the time to actually read the article.
