The Wrong Side of History?
Nicholas Kristof uses a wide array of quotes from the 1930s and 1960s to suggest that opponents of current healthcare legislation are “on the wrong side of history” He writes …
Mr. Kristof believes that social security and medicare are exemplars for the new government controlled healthcare system that President Obama and the Congressional majority insist on forcing on us. If that’s the case, we’ll be on a side of history that is deficit ridden, inefficient, overly-bureaucratic, and ultimately, far less effective than the current ‘in-need-of-reform’ healthcare system. If that is what is in store for all of us, I’m perfectly comfortable being on the wrong side of history.
