As a fourth great goal, I will offer a far-reaching set of pro-
posals for improving America's health care and making it available
more fairly to more people.
In recent years, almost the entire focus of government support
has been on helping people meet the cost of medical care. But pro-
tection against the cost of care does little good when the care itself
is not available because enough doctors, or nurses, or hospitals or
other facilities are not available, or not available where they are
needed; or because we have not done all we can to find cures for
dreaded diseases; or because our health policies are designed only
to take care of people after they get sick instead of keeping them
from getting sick.
This is why my health proposals will emphasize the supply of
medical care. It will also include an improved program for finane-

American has long been the wealthiest nation in the world. Now
it is time we became the healthiest nation in the world.
To help us become so, I will propose:

be prevented from obtaining a reasonable and basic standard of
