Inhaltsangabe
Challenging the promise of compulsory health insurance, this classic critique explains why the idea may not serve democracy or liberty.
This work analyzes the origins and aims of social insurance, arguing that what is marketed as “insurance” is often a form of taxation and government control. It contrasts American legal principles with foreign models, and explains how proposals for universal health measures can reflect broader political agendas. The author examines evidence from Britain, Germany, and other systems, and questions the real benefits claimed for mass health plans.
- Learn how proponents frame compulsory health insurance and why the author disputes those claims.
- See the tension between private medical practice, public policy, and the costs of social programs.
- Understand how data, research, and expert testimony were used to argue for or against reform.
- Explore the critique of panel physician systems, hospital and diagnostic centers, and the economics of benefits.
Ideal for readers of public policy history, health policy debates, and those curious about the long-running discussion of social welfare and personal liberty.
