  • An insurance mandate is the best thing she can come up with?? Oh, christ! Singapore is number 6 in the WHO study, and their system is pretty damn private, esp. with medical savings accounts for all citizens.  And yet, she says you should be forced by law to buy insurance?? Calling yourself a free-market economist but saying that we should be forced by gov't to buy a certain good makes no sense to me. Really? That's the ONLY way she can think of to make it "consumer-driven"?

  • Swiss HC system sounds good for Americans. I also like the Dutch HC system too. But, Canadians are polar opposites to Americans when it comes to health insurance. Canucks do NOT want a private option...
