To the Editor:
If there has been "a rough consensus...among the Democrats...to
stimulate competition" in healthcare plans, it is because they felt
obliged to kowtow to senator Lieberman. "Competition" in this context
codes for keeping our healthcare system in the hands of the insurance
companies. Now that he is no longer the irreplaceable fifty-first vote
in the senate, we can begin working on a plan that serves the people,
rather than those companies.
Barry Levine
