The American Medical Mess Charles Peter

About two trillion dollars a year is spent on health care in the USA; however, health care has yet to be defined. Ill-conceived laws have turned our emergency rooms into twenty-four hour outpatient clinics and have turned our ambulances into expensive taxis.

If bad laws, the insurance cartel with its fellow - traveling lawyers, inefficiency and fraud could be contained, the two trillian dollars could be reduced by at least one-third.

Health care run by the government as in Great Britain would give us "free", but unavailable, health care. A capitalistic free market system would give us more and better health care.
