I have found that after I have spoken to a group about our free market surgery center, the same question pops up. Every time. Someone will always ask how our model applies to the poor and indigent and how many of those folks do we take care of, after all? ...
My favorite captioned drone pics so far. What a display by Dr. Rand Paul. He quoted Lysander Spooner on the floor of the senate, essentially, poetic vandalism of this “hallowed” chamber! Spooner once said the constitution didn’t apply to...

Here’s a Forbes review of a WSJ article that gives us a heads up about what exchange insurance products will look like and how they will work. Dr. Scott Gottlieb points out that the design of Obamacare is identical to Medicaid, in that increased demand will be...
