- Obama Wants You To Shut Up And Obey
Well you had better tell congress to shut their mouth's then.
Wanna know a secret that no one in the media, Congress or the Whitehouse press office is telling you? There is nothing wrong with our Healthcare system that wasn't caused my Medicare. Our system isn't bankrupt, our government's version of our system is bankrupt. Get rid of Medicare and the drop in demand will immediately cause prices to revert to normal. That will be more for some things (at least until the industry can bring additional supply online), but much less for others.
Then of you get rid of the frivolous lawsuit by changing the system so that "the loser makes the winner whole", all prices will fall, and our medical care will not only be the best in the world, but also the cheapest.
Socialism never works... never has... never will. And I guess I can still say that because I didn't cause a damned thing. And if you're upset about the idea of ditching Medicare let me tell you another secret... it's going to happen eventually. We have no choice. either we get rid of Medicare or we let the government collapse and lose Medicare along with it. This is a long way off yet... but make no mistake... sure as the sunrise, it's going to happen.

I agree totally, but I would add this: if the supply of doctors is going to improve significantly, something needs to be done about the AMA's stranglehold on entry into the field via its accreditation of medical schools and its role in medical licensing. Most people don't know that the AMA is really an incredibly effective labor union. The AMA wouldn't have that much power without the help of the government.
In his economics books, Thomas Sowell explains the problem at length.
Good point, I agree completely (and have written about it before). We need more free market in the medical field not less. Innovation will then solve the problem of limited supply and demand driven inflation.
I just stumbled on this:

The essay currently at the top, "Health Care Mythology" is one-stop shopping for the reasons that the Democrats' healthcare plans would spell the end of medical advancement, among other tragedies.
