After a year of heated debate, Congress approved health care reform. This “accomplishment of historic proportions” will end America’s distinction as the only advanced industrial nation to not provide its citizens with near universal health care coverage. While the long running health care debate has been both “wrenching” and “tainted,” the New York Times nevertheless proclaims “a triumph for countless Americans who have been victimized or neglected by their dysfunctional health care system.” The newspaper adds, however, that current reforms should be seen as “a start on health care reform, not the end.”
