Medical Ghetto

This is one of the best assessments of government-run health care that I've heard to date. Senator Lamar Alexander likens Medicaid to a "medical ghetto."

This bill is historic in its arrogance, dumping 15 million low-income Americans into a medical ghetto called Medicaid that none of us or any of our families would ever want to be a part of for our health care…

…Moving 15 million low-income Americans into a program called Medicaid which is a medical ghetto is not health care reform.

If the Democrats have their way, the entire American health care system will slowly be transformed into a medical ghetto* as leftoids maliciously chip away at privately owned health care systems. American health care would crumble, becoming another unnecessary example of the "Tragedy of the Commons."

*For the race-baiters, here's the definition of ghetto:

a : an isolated group b : a situation that resembles a ghetto especially in conferring inferior status or limiting opportunity

Etymology: Italian, from Venetian dial. ghèto island where Jews were forced to live, literally, foundry (located on the island), from ghetàr to cast, from Latin jactare to throw
