Marcia Angell, a single-payer supporter and former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine, says she doesn't believe the House health-care reform bill is better than nothing. Instead, she writes in the Huffington Post, it "throws more money into a dysfunctional and unsustainable system, with only a few improvements at the edges, and it augments the central role of the investor-owned insurance industry." The fact that we need to do something does not mean we need to do this. "I would rather see us do nothing now," Angell concludes, "and have a better chance of trying again later and then doing it right."
