| qu1j0t3 | this is very similar to the rhetoric used against Native Canadians | Apr 07 00:37 |

| schestowitz | Doctors and the public need protection from both unethical businessmen and corrupt government. | Apr 07 09:52 |
| schestowitz | Private medicine is good if it is properly regulated and it's not incompatible with decent public health care. Private hospitals thrived in Louisiana even though Long built good public facilities. Needless to say, the private facilities were competitive. With proper regulations, they can be ethical because they will be run by doctors instead of businessmen. | Apr 07 09:52 |
| schestowitz | I don't really know much about Soviet medicine but I suspect it's an example of what happens with unregulated monopoly business.
