our view has now evolved,as a result of the empirical evidence in these papers, to the tentative conclusion that much of the rise in the health-care share of GDP may be due to policies and regulations related to private and social insurance No kidding, Sherlock! My empirical evidence has led me to the very same conclusion, but it ain't tentative at all. Find me a medium sized hospital in the entire nation which does NOT employ crowds of people who make a living trying to comply with government controls. Every hospital in the nation has a certain "reputation" in the community, and I submit that it is usually quite correct and well deserved. If the place is good, people know it. If it's a dump, they know it too. And they all know it without EVER reading reports from the Joint Commission for accreditation of hospitals. Deregulate -- and save money. That's where most of the waste resides. Tight controls are expensive, and command economies are never efficient.
