RangelMD.com Two-Tier Healthcare

There will always be a two tier health care system.

Part of the liberal idea for universal health care is that because everyone will be guaranteed at least government provided health insurance then everyone will have the same access to and receive the same health care, thereby eliminating inequalities of health care access and delivery. Too bad this is a total fantasy.

Wow, Rangel sounds a bit like Panda. You don’t suppose…
