Krugman on socialized medicine

By Alex Tabarrok on Economics

"Systems of actual socialized medicine, like Britain's, are actually very good at saying no: there's a limited budget, and the medical professionals who run the system set priorities. That's the reason British health care delivers results better than ours, at only 40 percent the cost — there are long waits for elective surgery, but that's because doctors think that it's not a high priority..." screwsubwalls.blogspot.com

Krugman gets points for a mostly honest description but he is a lousy salesman. Is there any doubt that most people reading this will say no way, not in America.
