...Battelle laboratories in Columbus, Ohio, researchers are working on those problems. They are devising painless alternatives to the hypodermic needle, fear of which causes many diabetics, for example, to delay necessary injections of insulin. One such device is the Mosquito, a small disk equipped with a tiny needle that penetrates only seven micrometers into the skin--not deep enough to impinge on nerve endings and cause pain. Attached to a patient's side, the disk allows mobility while it delivers the prescribed dose of drug evenly over a 24-hour period...

And yet the do-nothing plan has real consequences. If you support the do-nothing plan, you support a 25 to 33 percent cut in benefits. Beneficiaries in the future will pay a price, but politicians...
