Arthur Caplan on Health Reform

--Health reform is in the ethics. It will only occur if those who favor it can win the fight to recognize a right to health care. If health care is recognized as a right, then the details of how to achieve affordable health insurance reform will follow. If it is not, then efforts to move reform forward will simply die under the weight of nitpicking, fear-mongering, sloganeering, and the invocation of details as obstructions to change.

--Arthur L. Caplan,  Professor of Bioethics and director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania
