The Above Linkblogs Might Contain "Borrowed" links.
Linkblogs do not substantially contribute traffic to my blog that I can discover. They all go offsite, and are often accessed from my blog. It's possible to access them from the RSS according to my settings. Still, even if I were to get ads clicking on a linkblog from the RSS won't drive more people to my blog than otherwise because they leave my resources. (Note to self, do more posts, less LBs with sources I find). I explain because I sometimes borrow links from people at Twitter, and often forget who put them up. (To fellow Twitterers: If you have a link to your blog, I will point it there, but Twitter, being impermanent, cannot hold your link for people to discover from there. I only 'borrow' them to get news out to as many people as I can who might not have seen the reports and videos found by the smart people I follow at Twitter or find in search rooms.RSS Add-Me
Kristof: The Reality of Single Payer Health Insurance
I might not be like what you've been told.
Nicholas Kristof reports on one woman's experience with both American style health insurance and and Canadian Single Payer.
His report "This Time, We Won’t Scare " might be something you want to print out and leave around your home if you have teens or other voters in it. Take it to family outings and leave it lying around.
It might strike a chord with someone.
Mr. Kristof seems think that people won't get fooled again this time.
I'm not so sure.
But there's nothing like showing people the difference they could know with a public insurance plan, and if we want the president's public option to survive, then we need to remind people how good having a public health plan option can be for them whether or not they use it.
Because it will help keep private plans honest and their rates lower, and because it would always be an option if the private health care industry should try using anti competative practices.
