Terry Bankert is a Flint Divorce Lawyer Attorney sharing his opinion. [ This self serving sentence is Optimization bait to attract the search engines, apologies.]

Elias12 asked “ Who is going to pay for this?”

Why? And what are the trade offs ? These are some of the most legitimate questions a tax payer can ask.

Leadership has a responsibility and the media a role in defining these questions so those who go about their lives not steeped in the rhetoric and doctrines of public policy understanding.

With the collapse of the 5th estate, voluntary and professional bloggers and the system of immediate internet communication and information sharing are filling the accountability thru information void created.

I predict that we will glean our information increasingly from what I would describe as Internet Public Policy Docents (IPPD) .

But that’s another story. ( I am interest in meeting with those interested to define and develop this concept, Internet Public Policy Docents. I am sure its already going on somewhere,)

Elias12’s question can best be described as a cost benefit analysis. We do cost befit analysis every day. Do we buy a new car or feed the kids, is an example.

WHY ARE WE REFORMING HEALTHCARE? WHO IS GOING TO PAY FOR REFORMING HEALTH CARE, WITH TAX MONEY DIRECTLY OR TRADE OFFS FROM LOST GOVERNMENTAL SERVICES?

Who do you trust to answer these questions?

What information portal do you rely on to give you information to form your own opinion?

Who do you trust to form an opinion that you will adopt? [ Fox Network, Riley, RUSH, Obermann,, Franken (my favorite) or Michael Moore?

Well put Elias2.

I do not have an answer Al Frankin has not told me what to think, …..yet!
