Universal coverage, not medical technology, is the foundation of any caring health care system.

A truly moral health care system should start out by covering all of its citizens with basic health care. It would not be seduced by its technology and fancy buildings.

America's health care system is neither healthy, caring, nor a system.

America's doctors, nurses and medical researchers are the best in the world, but our health care system is broken.

We need to start training more primary health providers and fewer specialists. We will never be able to control health care costs unless we challenge the over-emphasis on medical research, specialists and technology and put more emphasis on delivering good, everyday basic medicine to those who now have none.

Let's face it, in America today we don't have a health care system, we have a sick care system.
