I don't know what it is about Ralph Klein. The man's been smacked around like a political punching bag lately - by his own party no less. His latest swatting coming from a legislative caucus now nervous about the idea of private health care insurance and a few other aspects of Ralph's so-called "Third Way".
Via Feministe, we learn of just how hideous the Health Insurance lobby in the United States really is.
For the short term, the most destructive aspects of Ralph's policy appears to have been chopped up and buried in several separate graves. However, like zombies, it always seems to find a way to crawl back out of the grave.
Until the PC's have chosen a new leader this fall, I think we can all breath a little easier. However, just because Ralph's gone, doesn't mean that we can trust his replacement on this topic. Citizens of Alberta will have to remain vigilant for a long time to come to guarantee that our health care system doesn't get overrun by the avaracious greed of private, for profit corporate interests.
A progressive voice shining light into the darkness of regressive politics. Pretty much anything will be fair game, and little will be held sacred.
