Giuliani on healthcare..........

[RedEarth]

"Look what happens with televisions. At first they are really expensive and they have some flaws, but eventually they come down in price, more people can afford them, and they are of higher quality. That is how markets work."

Rudy Giuliani, speaking in New Hampshire about how markets can improve the country's health care, a commodity that economists say is plagued by adverse selection and is widely considered to be a market failure.

4. If you have entities that are inherently focused on profit, Rudy,

then it is PROFITABLE to NOT provide care. Health care is not the latest gizmo at your local electronics story. Profit helps and encourages the tech market, but health care is A DIFFERENT THNG.

Why does anyone listen to these people?
