Best Ezra Klein editorial in a while

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...120702947.html

A good editorial... Education is needed. Many people are making knee jerk decisions without the right information.

But as good as the editorial was, that's just one of the issues. We still need to address the real issue... the rising cost of healthcare. One of the biggest "costs" is insurance for doctors. Malpractice premiums are going through the roof. We need real tort reform here. Sure, some doctors should be sued for malpractice, but these days, it seems if anything goes wrong, even something beyond the Doctors actions, it's lawsuit time. Too many malpractice suits, valid or not, are helping to raise the cost of the healthcare.
