It turns out that Walter Reed’s problems were well-known before the press exposed it to the larger public, and Congress was warned. But the bureaucrats did nothing. The folks at medpundit have captured the essence of government-run health care in the following excerpt from congressional hearings conducted in 2005:
GAO’s Gregory Kutz describing the soldiers’ problem: “overall, we found the current stove-piped, non-integrated order-writing, personnel, pay, and medical eligibility systems require extensive error-prone manual data entry and re-entry.”
Who would be crazy enough to want people who talk like this to run the health care system of the whole country?
