...course, a conservative economist would reply in trickle-down jargon. New businesses, higher productivity and the like are the cures for the kinks in the system Sen so repetitively pledges allegiance to. I hope I am not the first to inform Sen that in reality trickle-down provides just that: a trickle. The unfathomable abundance of wealth the upper class and the educated "elite" monger through the noble pursuit of investment banking is directly proportional to the meager scraps for the rest of us at the bottom.

...have basically two options: you can enroll in another HMO, or you can opt for "traditional" Medicare coverage, in which you choose your doctor and pay certain deductibles for hospitalization and a 20% co-payment on other services.

Community is a term quite liberally flung around, and in terms of multiculturalism, it often appears that community is composed solely of people of that ethnicity. If you aren't African-American or Italian or Jewish, you can't possibly understand the needs and intricacies of a particular group, so you might as well not even try--this is the self-defeating implication of the current exclusion of other groups...
