The last paragraph of that article is prophetic. Large regulators almost never shrink, or become smarter, or more efficient. At best they tend to grow very, very slowly - at best. We (high regulation) are going to experience many fewer unwanted side effects from medical innovation. We are also going to have less medical innovation. Other places (with low regulation) will have a lot more people suffer form unwanted side effects of new medical treatments, devices, drugs, etc. But they will also have a lot more treatment options, and a lot cheaper treatment options. All other things being equal, where would you like to live?
