In the hopes of encouraging a more civil, and illuminating, discourse, here is another episode of William F. Buckley, Jr.’s “Firing Line”.
The exponentially rising cost of medical care, even above that of inflation, has long been catnip for those who call for bigger government, including those who wish to controls costs by rationing and/or euthanasia. Between Medicare and later Medicaid being inacted to the passage of Obamacare, let us look back at a less than successful proposal thirty years ago as Charles A. Sanders, J. Ward Kurad, and Richard Janewy discuss with William F. Buckley, Jr. the question of whether medical costs are controllable?
Until next Friday.
