QOTD: "We haven’t had anything resembling a free market in medicine, or health insurance, in decades. It was government interference that screwed things up enough to make ObamaCare politically feasible. It is highly unlikely that the market-distorting concept of “employer-provided insurance” would ever have existed, absent wage controls that forced employers to offer benefits instead of pay. Imagine what both insurance and medicine might cost, if they were shaped by the sort of consumer forces that fill our store shelves with inexpensive high-quality goods. How complicated of an insurance system would we need, if free-market competition made everything cheap and simple enough?" --John Hayward
