Bob Samuelson, the sharpest economic columnist in the country (at the Washington Post, no less), has written an incisive and devastating analysis of the "public option" proposal in pending healthcare legislation.
He calls it "an exercise in political avoidance: it pretends to control costs and improve access to quality care when it doesn't."
If you are at all interested in how this major policy debate is going to be settled, read Bob's column - and send it around to others.
