Today’s target
ABOLISHHHS
Department of Health and Human Services
We spend more on health care than any other country. We aren’t healthier for it.
Official story
What they claim to do
Protects the health of all Americans and provides essential human services.
Ground truth
What they actually do
Runs Medicare, Medicaid and dozens of other programs. The U.S. spends far more per person on health care than any other wealthy country, yet its life expectancy is lower than most of its peers.
The libertarian case
When someone else pays, prices stop mattering, and runaway costs follow. Direct primary care, transparent pricing, health savings accounts and open competition let patients and providers deal with each other. Reconnect the person who gets the care with the person who pays for it.
