It is easy to construct a case that the US spends way too much money on health care. The US spends twice as much as the average OECD country, 90% more than the Canada and 150% more than the UK, yet the US has one of the lowest life expectancy rates and one of the highest infant mortality rates in the developed world. Some have suggested these numbers indicate that at the margin, additional health care dollars generate little in...
