Best Senatorial Quote of The Week

This weeks best quote goes out to Senator Lamar Alexander of Tennessee.

It is arrogant to imagine that 100 senators are wise enough to reform comprehensively a health care system that constitutes 17 percent of the world’s largest economy and affects 300 million Americans of disparate backgrounds and circumstances

Exactly, especially when a majority of them do not have backgrounds in economics, finance or medicine. The industry knows best. What’s needed is oversight and basic regulation and a few simple rules. Those rules to come in another post shortly.
