For all the big talk that US republicans do on 'regulations' I'll only take them seriously if and only if they deregulate the health care market. The regulations only enable a demand-heavy, supply limited market which jacks prices to crazy levels (ever try to buy CPAP equipment?).
On the flip side, without some sort of oversight, reporting, and rational tort-enforcement, I'm sure the slimiest of vendors would overtake the market.
- maxerickson 9y agoThe focus on discussing regulations in terms of "more" and "less" is a big problem. Things like whether a regulation is well targeted, whether the costs it imposes are reasonably related to the benefit it provides and so on are much more interesting.
