It’s taken years to get us into the mess in health care. And it will take more than an election cycle to get us out. The author of a new book on public health care is trying to sound the alarm about the “fixes” that some jurisdictions are proposing to allow private health services. Catherine Mac Neil is a thirty year veteran who is still a Registered Nurse and a teacher. Her book is titled Dying to be Seen. And she is sounding the alarm over the risk of losing the entire system to Neo-Liberalism and privatization that won’t help the sickest people who may also be the poorest people.
