People don't really want to save money

David Leonhardt with a nice article noting that everyone says they want to slow cost inflation/reduce spending....until you try to slow cost inflation/reduce spending and then they go nuts. He further notes (correctly in my view) that it is certainly easy to say the Senate bill doesn't do enough to address costs....but the status quo does nothing. And many of the folks leading the way saying 'this doesn't do enough on costs' have no track record of trying to address costs in the health care system.
