However even if the nation adopted a Canadian style system health care spend ing would nearly double by 2000 to $1.55 trillion from $830 billion last year. If the system continued unchanged 39 million people would be uninsured and health care spending would Rise to $1.7trillion, according to a congressional budget office study to be released today if the nation adopted a system of managed Competition which the Clin ton administration appears to favor costs in the stars and stripes 10 years ago july 26,1983 an eight ship Battle group led by the aircraft car Rier Ranger arrived on station 100 Miles off Central America in the first stage of a .

The $830 billion spent on health care last year represented roughly 14 percent of total economic output. In 1965, health care spending accounted for 6 percent of the Economy. Spending on health care is expected to continue to take an Ever increasing share of economic output especially if no changes Are made to control medical costs the managed Competition proposal that the co Analysed does not include a federally imposed limit on National health spending which president Linton favors. Under managed Competition con Sumers Are grouped into buying pools that Purchase health coverage from consortia of hospitals doctors and other pro viders. Health maintenance organizations Are an example of such consortia. The co Analysed four legislative proposals submitted last year and projected their effects on the Federal budget health insurance coverage and National health expenditures. Co will use a similar approach when it analyses Clinton s plan now expected in september. The report did not address the Quality of health care under the various proposals. Greater control Over health care spend ing is also Likely to require significant changes in the health care system changes that May limit desirable features such As Freedom of Choice of insurance plans and providers rapid Access to new technologies and treatments and High lev Els of research and development the re port noted.

The Rescue attempt recalled elements of the movie free Willy in which a Young boy helps Rescue a killer whale. Specific mechanisms for enforcing those limits achieved More sayings than other approaches the report said. Inherent in those approaches is the be Lief that Market forces Are less capable than regulation of achieving Cost savings. The debate Over whether the Market or govern ment regulation is Best at curbing health spending while maintaining an acceptable level of Quality will be a Central controversy in the debate on health care Reform. Government spending on medicare for the elderly and disabled and on medicaid for the poor Are the fastest growing contributors to the Federal deficit. In its analysis the co took into account such things As How Consumers would respond to changes in the Price of insurance expected changes in the Pri vate health insurance Market and to what extent health maintenance organizations can expect to contain costs. Activists target Young viewers of will film san Diego a As children leave movie houses after watching a tear Jerker about a Young boy s attempt to free a whale they Are being urged to join the cause of animal rights activists.

More than 100,000 leaflets have been handed out since the movie opened More than a week ago said Elliot Katz of the san Rafael based group in defense of animals. He said his organization can barely keep up with demand. Organizers have targeted the sea world Parks owned by the world s larg est Brewer St. Louis based Anheuser Busch companies inc.

Sea Wor d officials insist that their Ani Mals Are treated Well Given Large areas in which to swim have companionship with other killer whales or Orcas and Are Given generous portions of food. The film is about a troubled boy who befriends a recently captured lovable orca named Willy who refuses to per form in Park shows. Some characters including the theme Park s owner try to exploit the animal then plot to kill him to reap insurance Money.
