Daniel Hannan: Don't adopt our (British) health care system!
Hannan on American political principles. Great discussion about health care beginning at 4:40.
He addresses Michael Moore's fallacy about life expectancy being an accurate gauge of the quality of health care. (In reality, life expectancy reflects murder rates and lifestyle as much as it does health care.)
He also points out that bureaucrats outnumber doctors in the British system--the state is not efficient (and the sky is blue).
(Here's Hannan's famous speech at the EU denouncing British Prime Minister Gordon Brown)
