Daniel Schorr's Proposal: Make Health Care Part of Pentagon Budget
Yesterday on NPR Daniel Schorr was decrying the lack of health care in this country, particularly for uninsured children. He described the governor's convention where the governors were talking about how much money was needed for the CHIPs program to insure children through the states.
They were not optimistic about getting the feds to fund this mandate.
Schorr proposed attaching the children's health care budget to the Pentagon's budget so that the children would be healthy enough to become soldiers to serve in the administrations various wars.
his commentaries are so thoughtful, and because he sounds like someone's kindly grandpa, the bite that often comes with his commentaries is all that more effective.
