Yeah, and right now, we have a nifty combo of socialist-y stuff (Soc Sec, Medicare, Medicaid) and free-market-y stuff. So will changing the balance to include purely catastrophic coverage (see Ty's post) through taxes be enough to tip the balance over to a system in which "all the beer you can drink" can't happen? I'm thinking, no. But it's a slippery, slippery slope. Kinda like the wheelchair ramp when #2 and I went a little overboard with the lube.

But think of what this will do to the legal system? If doctor's income suffers, the best and brightest would no longer go to medical school and will go to law school instead. Competition in law school will get rough then!
