All Sunny in Media Land

"Let's just get the law passed, then we'll let the media take over."

I think that was the game plan. From my local newspaper came this story yesterday morning: "Health care gains start soon." That AP story by Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar took different forms, but the headlines were all pretty similar. This remarkably-optimistic headline showed up dozens of time on a Yahoo! search: "[Health care gains start soon – bigger ones later](http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100323/ap%5Fon%5Fbi%5Fge/us%5Fhealth%5Fcare%5Foverhaul%5F265?ref=thedailyeudemon.com)." And of course, the markets did well yesterday, so that was the result of the health care bill, too: [U.S. stocks surge on health-care certainty](http://finance.yahoo.com/news/US-stocks-surge-on-healthcare-cbsmtop-475720948.html?x=0&.v=1&ref=thedailyeudemon.com). And all those negative polling numbers from 72 hours ago? Well, they've disappeared! [Opinions turn favorable on health care plan](http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-03-23-health-poll-favorable%5FN.htm?csp=34&ref=thedailyeudemon.com). I'm just waiting for news that the weather is sunny and impotence cured because of the health care legislation.

A Decent Piece by Dalrymple

"Americans would do well to ponder a recent admission by a former British minister in the Blair government. On March 2, the Guardian reported that the ex-minister, now Lord Warner, said that while spending on Britain's National Health Service had increased by 60 percent under the Labour government, its output had decreased by 4 percent."
