Three Noteworthy Sectors: Gold, Food and Healthcare

The healthcare sector has tanked after every new revelation by President Obama about how he is going to rescue and change and improve things. This pattern should tell everyone that he isn't willing to address the root cause of the high cost of healthcare: thieving lawyers and ridiculous torts that have abandoned causal relatedness and reasonableness so long ago that sane precedents are difficult to recall.

Healthcare providers offer a service that everyone, literally, can't live without. Lawyers provide a service we can hardly tolerate and clearly can no longer afford.

If we want to "reform" healthcare for the better, make practice conditions better for doctors and nurses, and protect the healthcare industry from being sacked again and again by trial attorneys.
