    Health care reform

    One way to approach the enormously complex US health care reform: invest federal dollars into 2 years of state-focused experiments with the simple rule that no two states can experiment with exactly the same model. Then choose or fuse the best, which can be done by national vote. Guaranteed more innovation than the old model of study everything, then implement large scale.

    I think we have talked this subject to death for so many years, that I'm starting to lose faith that it will ever be solved. The opposing forces are really making a lot of noise these days. The prez was unable to move fast enough to get something through before he could be derailed.

    I'm a big believer in breaking large tasks into smaller, more manageable chunks. For every challenge there is ALWAYS a way to make a little progress toward a larger goal.

    I'd be open to some experimentation.However, I think our national leaders should by now be able to articulate the problems in order of importance and - at least - solve the biggest part of the problem upfront to get some momentum going. Then refine, adding enhancements as they become affordable.
