America's Health Care System Not that Different from Socialism

That is an important insight stressed by John C. Goodman at the Independent Institute. Goodman argues that people on both the political right and left fail to appreciate how similar our health care plan is to more explicitly socialistic plans like those in Canada and Europe.

For those inclined to romanticize the United Kingdom's health care system, I recommend the latest opinion piece by Theodore Dalrymple, discussing Britain's "cherished, lousy National Health Service."
