The President of Duval County Medical Society, R. Steven Lucie has stated that we have access to the best health care in the world but when it comes to quality care and health insurance we have an attitude like cost is no objective. Before America can establish significant health care reform it first must institute federal medical liability reform. National health insurance reform is needed to standardize an industry that has made it almost impossible for people to purchase affordable health insurance. Lucie says that until we come to terms with rising medical costs, a government health care plan will only put us further in debt. Do you agree?

   Totally. Take 2 years to wring the cost out of the present system before enacting a reform bill that may well prove to be our undoing. Since health care makes up 17% of our national economy and one of the primary reasons for reform is to reduce costs, shouldn’t we see if that is possible first?
