...Keeton-O'Connell Plan offers no true solution. It is a sheer palliative intended to satisfy everyone. It offers to the advocate of liability without fault direct insurance payments for economic loss up to $10,000, regardless of negligence. However, it retains traditional litigation based on fault for economic loss in excess of $10,000 and for pain and suffering claims above $5,000.

The close genetic relationship between mother and son would minimize the difficulty of the transplant...
...Johnson wants more than half of this increase to be used for interest and other payments under his "guaranteed loan program." Frugal congressmen may ignore the President's recommendation that banks receive a service charge of 35 dollars for the cost of paper work involved in administering the plan, since it seems unlikely that Congress will want to appear to be covering banking interests. The rest of Johnson's proposed increase will be largely eaten up by quick growth of the number of students who need financial help and the continued rise in college costs...
