The same thing -- only an indirect connection between buyer and seller -- could be seen as a primary cause of the rise in healthcare costs as well.

- sanderjd 12y agoIn theory, the wealthy patron who is paying the tab would be the one to control the rate of price increases. We seem to get into these perverse situations by balancing our desire for the government to provide beneficial social services with our desire for the government to avoid manipulating prices in ostensibly private industries. Libertarians and socialists may be right that each of their extremes are better than the middle ground, but it's much easier to get support for a compromise.
