Health Care and Medical Care Are Different And Government Shouldn't Control Either
Thomas Sowell, Ph.D. Economics, and senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford, has written a clear and concise piece on why government involvement in medical care will be detrimental and how the rush to pass supposed "health care" reform is purposefully confusing.
Sowell asks: "Is there a coherent argument for government-controlled medical care, or are slogans and hysteria considered sufficient?
We
hear endlessly about how many Americans don’t have health insurance.
But, if we stop and think — which politicians hope we never do — that
raises the question as to why that calls for government-controlled medical care.
A
bigger question is whether medical care will be better or worse after
the government takes it over. There are many available facts relevant
to those crucial questions but remarkably little interest in those
facts."
