Armin, GZSP in last week's or this week's Barron's?

On health care, I am not sure it will turn around in the sense that it will go from being a lousy business to being a good business. It seems to be politically correct for providers to remain at death's door and for HMOs/insurance companies to be unable to charge enough to have no problems paying their obligations. That is why I have always stayed away, as these firms are too dependent on government reimbursement, and government has conflicting constituencies here.

Earlier in the Clinton reign I thought the HMOs would end up ruling the world but be regulated like utilities with an allowed rate of return. So far it hasn't happened.
