HillaryCare Redux Reax

In the spirit of not reinventing the health commentary wheel, here are some free-market reactions to the announcement of HillaryCare, Part Deux.

My favorite quote thus far, courtesy of Cato Institute Director of Health Policy Studies Michael Cannon:

"Rather than herd consumers into regional insurance pools (where Washington calls the shots), Clinton would let consumers stay right where they are (and have Washington call the shots) or join a national purchasing pool (where Washington calls the shots).
"You may recognize that idea as the one that put President Kerry in the White House. Ditto President Lieberman. And President Clark. And even President Dean."
