Bad Medicine for Children
Submitted by A.J. Gokcek on 10.7.1998
The claim to champion the health of children has been a consistent rhetorical winner for politicians promoting more government spending and control. From the expansion of Medicaid to its present status as a middle-class entitlement to the growth of school-based health clinics, massive new government programs that do little to improve health-care outcomes have all been created in the name of "the children." And now the latest program coming out of Washington moves us one step closer to nationalized medicine under the pretense of aiding children.
