An interesting analysis suggests that much of the received wisdom about health care is inaccurate.
I have to admit that I haven't looked at the statistics bandied about, but I know how easy it is to get completely idiotic results if you don't take all your variables into account correctly. "Dewey beats Truman," anybody? The infant mortality statistics obviously need to be sent back for more work. Maybe the conclusions would be the same in the end, but it is either incompetent or dishonest to compare apples to oranges the way the OECD report is used.
