NYTimes opinion
アメリカの医療保険制度創設をめぐる動きは、民主党がM州の議席を失ったことでまた一頓挫している。
Krugmanは、NewYorkTimesの論壇で早期の成立を訴えている。
その締めくくり部分:
Bear in mind that the horrors of health insurance — outrageous premiums, coverage denied to those who need it most and dropped when you actually get sick — will get only worse if reform fails, and insurance companies know that they’re off the hook. And voters will blame politicians who, when they had a chance to do something, made excuses instead.
Ladies and gentlemen, the nation is waiting. Stop whining, and do what needs to be done.
