    The article was sort of all over the place and was hard to tell what point they were trying to drive home despite bringing up a few good points.

    Will say that I do not think my wife's clinic accepts any form of government insurance. Pretty sad that there are veterans that served 20 years to get Tricare, yet my wife's clinic could not survive if it had to depend on it. Workman's comp is even worse.

    I see the increase in expenditures happend about the same time Farm Aid started. Think there is probably a link to our agriculture becoming corn based, the rise in obesity, thus a rise in health care costs.
