It can be extremely difficult to maintain objectvity in a discussion about the broad topic of health care. It can be a very personal, emotional topic for many. However, if there is any hope at arriving at a well conceived set of solutions about the issues in the health care system, objectivity has to be the starting point for the discussion.

The "health care issue" is tremendously complex. Folks tend to lump health care delivery together with health insurance and view it all as one common problem. They are very different issues, and both would have their own unique set of solutions.
