Obama and the Doctors
For your reading enjoyment, may I suggest my article today for the American Spectator entitled “Obama and the Doctors” in which I pass along a fascinating (at least it was to me) reaction to Obamacare by a doctor I know who has long considered himself a liberal.

The article is good in pointing out that defensive medicine and malpractice are expensive, but it ignores the biggest driver of medical prices in the USA, which is overpaid AMA union doctors. If Obama allowed more med schools to open and allowed more students to graduate, there would be more competition and prices would diminish in a few years. Instead, he's merely following the Bush playbook of increasing government power at the expense of the citizens.
