  • What do Democrats have against marriage?
  • California Blocks Life-Sustaining Telehealth Treatment.
  • Raj Chetty, et. al.: For children in the U.S. born between 1978 and 1992, income class gaps grew and race gaps shrank, and similarly for non-monetary outcomes such as educational attainment, standardized test scores, and mortality rates.
  • “Every attorney general fights for state power and police prerogatives. It’s part of the job. But over and over again, [Kamala] Harris went beyond the call of duty, fighting for harsher sentences, larger bail requirements, longer prison terms, more prosecution of petty crimes, greater criminal justice involvement in low-income and minority communities, less due process for people in the system, less transparency, and less accountability for bad cops.”
  • “The cost of wearing a mask for two weeks, for me personally, is higher than the benefit of a 3% reduction in the risk of getting a cold.”
  • Expanding scope of practice authority for dental hygienists:  “Overall the effects were modest but the individuals who benefited most from this policy change were lower income individuals.”

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
