Making his parents proud

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

Sherrod Brown has finally decided to go to medical school.

Wright-Patterson’s medical centers have run out of money and are telling patients to go elsewhere. That doesn’t make the good senator happy, so he’s going to fix the problem.

“Resources may be strained, but under no circumstances should a veteran be denied the right care by the right provider,” he said. “I will stay involved to ensure that outcome.”

Unless . . . maybe he’s going to go the more traditional route, and engage in some price-fixing, making sure the price is low enough to serve his voters, er, serve the good citizens of Ohio and anyone else who can cross the border. If that’s his strategy, may we suggest that he go whole hog, and set the price at zero? That way there will be plenty for everyone.
