With the talk about ObamaCare, it stands to reason that any government has a disadvantage in cutting costs. Politics finds it easier to hire than to fire. Voters you fire will not vote for you again. Politics finds it easier to overpay. Especially when government jobs are unionized.
Has any government ever run efficiently? The Post Office, for example?
Also: Let us consider our experience with Medicaid and Medicare. How they have botched efficiency and costs of that forerunner to proposed ObamaCare.
If the cost of Medicaid and Medicare have gotten so far out of hand, beyond their original projections, how can we believe the health care savings fantasies of the future?
