Giuliani’s health care plan

June 28, 2007

Makes the most sense, says a WSJ op-ed:

“It’s your health,” Mr. Giuliani said in a June Republican debate. “You should own your insurance.”

This is a strikingly different message than the standard political fare of telling people they have a right to health care and someone else has an obligation to pay for it. It will be politically effective, as it addresses the core anxiety most Americans experience with health care — the insecurity of knowing that we could lose insurance if we changed jobs. Americans don’t mind paying for health insurance. We already are. We just want security.
