Statism: Socialism always expands inequality
In the Soviet Union party member were first among equals. Our unequal system of government and private schools provide another example. And socialist healthcare provides yet another.
Healthcare: HSAs work!
Via Carpe Diem: In 2009, for example, state workers with the HSA visited emergency rooms and physicians 67% less frequently than co-workers with traditional health care. They were much more likely to use generic drugs than those enrolled in the conventional plan, resulting in an average lower cost per prescription of $18. They were admitted to hospitals less than half as frequently as their colleagues. Differences in health status between the groups account for part of this disparity, but consumer decision-making is, we've found, also a major factor. Overall, participants in our new plan ran up only $65 in cost for every $100 incurred by their associates under the old coverage.
