Call It What You Will

To the Editor:
Who cares what modern health-care-delivery methods are called (Philip M. Boffey, "The Socialists Are Coming! The Socialists Are Coming!," Sept. 28)? The elemental problem is that more and more persons feel entitled to vast quantities of high-quality health care paid for by someone else. And politicians, ever-lusting for office, are only too happy to further conjure the ridiculous illusion that A will get top-flight service from B when C is forced by G to pay the bills.
Sincerely,
