About Healthcare
The Wall Street Journal, Monday Dec 27, 05, had a good article on what California has done to require hospitals to disclose their prices. Very revealing. The argument against universal healthcare is that "Market Forces" will produce better results. A major problem with this thesis is that healthcare providers, especially hospitals, don't/won't tell you before a procedure what your costs will be and what the likely outcomes are. It is the only industry that claims to be "Market driven" but doesn't tell you what you are getting and what the price is. Sounds more like a shell game to me. -- And this from a died in the wool free marketer. (Original on True Majority, Policy Issues, comment on Universal Healthcare post. Click Here )
