It's a great day for freedom.

Equally Unequal

Here is a letter I recently sent to the Midland Daily News:

Dr. Valeriy Ginzburg states in a recent letter that “the bills adopted by the Senate and the House probably represent the most fair way of covering the uninsured while spreading the costs in an equitable fashion.” (“Health care reform imperative,” February 5).

I respectively disagree.

If the bills adopted by the Senate and the House truly spread costs across society fairly, the respective number of pages for these bills would not surpass 10 pages. In other words, it would be simple to total all health care costs and divide them equally amongst the members of society. It is precisely because these bills favor particular classes of people over others that these bills are well over 1000 pages of elusive legal jargon.

Cell Phones Bans Not Effective

In a recent study conducted by Highway Loss Data Institute. It shows that bans on cell phones have not decreased accidents or the kind of accidents. It just shows that taking away general freedoms is not a way to make us safer. Which makes me wonder, if the law that bans texting while driving will be effective.
