I was thinking that this was nothing new.

There will be rationing one way or another.

It can be a unionized government bureaucrat or it can be a private health insurance company. At least with the latter, you do have a choice of finding a better insurance provider if you think you are not getting your money's worth. What recourse will we have if a government bureaucrat has the first and final say?

Of course they decide, iatrogenesis isn't the third leading cause of death just because it's in style. Today's docs are just modern day pimps because all they are allowed to do is prescribe and cut.
