November 1, 2009It is beyond doubt that we are in a potentially historic moment of great change. In the last two years we’ve made huge change in America. Just four or five years ago after George W’s re-election how many of us thought that in 2008 we would elect as President a progressive African-American and large majorities of Democrats in both Houses of Congress? And how many of us thought that we would also be so close to passage of the Employee Free Choice Act and real, fundamental labor law reform?
Americans are ready for change! And no potential change in America is more significant as real, fundamental healthcare reform.
A plea for a more rational system
