McKinnell does a good job of stating his case for his version of an idealized heath care delivery system. I did not always agree with him on his business assessment of the system, I found his writing and references quite well done. Despite the fact that he is a CEO of a giant drug company, and my lefty leaning self found it the tiniest bit difficult to be open minded. I was able in the paper I wrote to use some of his arguments to paint the opposing side of my own argument a bit blacker, so that made me happy. Besides, it's always good to read a bit from the perspective of the other half.
