David, the problem is that health care costs isn't cyclical like the economy. We've got more people on more prescription medications than ever before, along with a whole Baby Boomer generation about to retire, and they're going to demand their entitlements.

Can't tell them, "Too bad, you should have taken better care of your financial and physical health." That won't win votes, delegates, earmark funds, whatever.

Since I think universal health care is all but inevitable, I'd feel better if any one of the three candidates actually understood the problem in the first place. It is clear to me that none of them do, though.
