This post is about the Australian healthcare situation. I am posting this because this is also what is befalling the US healthcare system and hence the urgency to contain costs. Obama does realize that we do not have to wait for the public outcry against rising healthcare costs to reach critical mass. We can do it now and today. But unfortunately, there are vested interests for the insurance industry in both parties who are serving as a barrier to the passage of healthcare reforms. I think in the very near future we will see a shift and people will start pushing HCR through.
