No Free Lunches in Medical Care by Thomas Sowell on National Review Online

No Free Lunches in Medical Care by Thomas Sowell on National Review Online.

I was reading Monday's Patriot Post and there was a quote from this column by  Thomas Sowell that said "If you think the government can lower medical costs by eliminating “waste, fraud, and abuse,” as some Washington politicians claim, the logical question is: Why haven’t they done that already?"

Good question for all you health care advocates. Does it really make sense to look to the Government to cut waste, fraud and abuse? Seems very silly and ignorant to me. This is the same Government that devised the postal service and wrote the tax code - not monuments to efficiency.
