Passing the torch

My friend Cornucrapia was kind enough to take over where I left off concerning Canadian health care (as I haven't really had time to devote to the matter... plus Cornucrapia studies economics, so I figured he'd be a good guy to ask for input) by writing a general response to Freddy Boisseau's statement that he cannot accept Canadian health care could be as good as American health care. Cornucrapia's post gives a good overview of the general failings of the "free market fixes everything" mindset, so I think it is worth checking out. I doubt Freddy is still around, but on the off chance that he is, I hope he will follow the link and think on the matter.
