Former Senator Daschle makes a pretty clear case in flushing out the health care progress from it's past incrementally and tortuously slow movement of small successes to the present administrations full court press, and more importantly why it needs to be. He does a good service by exposing the distortions, lies, and walls built to protect the status-quo to the determent of the majority of Americans.

1. Once someone has the flu, they are contagious to others, whether a doctor sees them or not.
2. We should all be so lucky that illegal immigrants show up at the ER with the flu. That would be inexpensive. The reality is that they show up in the ER with stab wounds from a fight- or motor vehicle crash injuries from drunk driving (and killing a 4 year-old girl despite already having 3 DUI convictions on his driving record) and/or not wearing seat belts. Last month, they just fled the scene after killing another driver in a hit-and-run crash, (they literally got out of their car and ran) and when the cops finally tracked down their address from their abandoned car's license plate, they had already taken a Greyhound bus back to Mexico.
But Daschle insists we should treat them for the flu. As if that would make any difference. It would be far cheaper to put Greyhound bus stops at every emergency room all the way to Mexico.
