WASHINGTON (AP) — The government's insurance website is faster and easier to use, but as a third sign-up season gets underway, President Barack Obama's health care law is approaching limits.
Enrollment on the federal and state exchanges began Sunday. While the law's expanded coverage has reduced the uninsured rate to a historic low of about 9 percent, the gains will be harder in 2016.
By any standard – the physical and metaphysical – former Congressman Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) should not be alive today considering the extreme comorbidity of his mental illnesses and addictions.
That is one of several conclusions one might reach from Kennedy's extraordinarily engrossing memoir, "A Common Struggle" (Blue Rider). The book debuted at number three on The New York Times combined Print and E-book non-fiction list on October 25.
