How to fix the US health care system - Milton Friedman

Recently, I stumbled upon a video by Milton Friedman who brilliantly explained what the role of government concerning health care ought to be and how the current health care system in the US can be fixed.

As of today, the United States has the most expensive health care system in the world! Through the actions of politicians who try to capture as many votes as possible by catering to special interests, the costs of the society as a whole are dramatically increased from the level at which they would be if the market was allowed to function freely.

  1. He makes many great points. I'm of the belief that in a utopia, no one would need healthcare because there would be a great lack of illness.
