On WestSouthwest, a discussion about the balance between online privacy and freedom of speech. And a Kalamazoo doctor's idea for a "free market" version of health care reform.
A European Court has ruled that search engines such as Google have to honor requests to remove links with potentially damaging content unless there is a compelling public interest to maintain them. Western Michigan University Communication Professor Sandra Borden says that's not likely in the United States. But she says there will still be debates over the balance between privacy and freedom of speech.
Last week we heard from Missouri physician Ed Weisbart who made the case for a single-payer health care system. Kalamazoo Doctor Ken Fisher says there's a better way to reform health care. He says tax credits to establish health savings accounts would put patients in charge of their health care and how dollars are spent. Fisher says an HSA, combined with a high-deductible insurance plan, would provide a more "free market" approach to health care.
