Default Re: Bush\'s 4th veto of his presidency is a good one

Two points: We spend more than we should because of government regulations that prevent competition in the insurance industry and *require* people to buy coverage for things they may not want to buy coverage for. This artificially raises costs.

Second, there are fewer restrictions here on what drug companies charge for medicine. In effect, Americans subsidize the drug costs for people in other countries.
