Universal coverage is a worthy goal.
Head snap!
Also (my emphasis):
...my own view is that the individual mandate is perfectly acceptable policy. We effectively have a national health care system. We all indirectly pay for ill, uninsured people who show up at emergency rooms. If all Americans are in the same interconnected health care system, I think it’s reasonable for government to insist that all Americans participate in the insurance network that is the payment method for that system.
Brooks's movement on the issue reinforces my belief that as the law gets implemented, more and more people will come to see its wisdom.
