7/24/2008: Universal Health Care is Pro-Business (PDF) (Executive Counsel via Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP)
Excerpt: "Everyone agrees that three fundamental areas -- access, quality and cost -- need to be addressed, but politicians on the campaign trail differ on how to achieve universal care. Historically, U.S. health policy has embraced a spectrum of options amid predictable partisan rhetoric, demonizing both 'big government' and excessive commercialization of health care. Employers pressured by globalized competition and economic uncertainty appear poised to assume a more active role in the reform debate, possibly by lobbying collaboratively in strategically aligned policy blocs."
