LESS IS NOT MORE -- BY THOMAS SOWELL, National Review

Reducing care just reduces care, not costs.

Although it is cheaper to buy a pint of milk than to buy a quart of milk, nobody considers that to be lowering the price of milk. Although it is cheaper to buy a lower quality of all sorts of goods than to buy a higher quality, nobody thinks of that as lowering the price of either lower or higher quality goods.

Yet, when it comes to medical care, there seems to be remarkably little attention paid to questions of both quantity and quality in the rush to “bring down the cost of medical care.”
