Articles and Commentary [List all]

President Obama's speech continued his efforts to seduce the main organized interest groups of the health industry to listen to the magic words rather than pay attention to the content of imminent health legislation.

For the time being, members of Congress and the Obama administration remain reluctant to free their inner socialist child and make more transparent the sort of health care transformation and revenue extraction quantities they may prefer ultimately.

Taxing health insurance without addressing the problems of third-party payment schemes within the current system will get us nowhere.
