Top 10

One of our readers posted a comment yesterday relating to a very nice and insightful opinion on healthcare.

It is very much worth reading. It is short, concise and very applicable to our recent discussions. The link is:

[The Top 10 Reasons for Soaring Health-Care Costs: The Naked Economist - Yahoo! Finance]

The introductory excerpt is as follows:

What's the most intractable public policy problem the U.S. faces? Health care. I don't think any other issue even comes close. Health care has all the ideological fireworks of social issues like abortion or gay marriage (e.g. is health care a right or a privilege?). Yet the system itself -- the process of providing care and allocating those costs -- is also stunningly complex.

I must agree with you. Could not find any that I disagree with.

Guess I owe you a beer. No wait, that falls under #8.

HB,
If you are serious, I would more than happy to buy you a "magic elixar". It would be a way to finally meet.
