Independence Institute Writers In the News
The Supreme Court Obamcare decisions and the first Amendment are topics of recently published works by Independence Institute writers.
In the Denver Post, Health Care Policy Center director Linda Gorman lays out some straightforward, market-based health care reforms should Congress attempt to replace and repeal Obamacare. Writes Linda:
Advocates of Obamacare claim that unless we let the government (mis)manage even more of the health care system, there will no health safety net.
To the contrary, with patient-centered reforms, we can reduce ordinary health care costs for everyone, make insurance for extraordinary costs accessible and affordable, and provide an effective safety net for the poor.
Whole thing here.
In the Great Falls (Montana) Tribune, Rob Natelson writes on the importance of First Amendment freedoms when politicians, from both sides of the aisle, go gunning for media outlets they don’t like, using Great Britain as an example. Writes Rob:
At a minimum, mainstream reporters have to mute what they write about sitting office holders so they can maintain access to sources. Less scrupulous reporters amplify messages promoted by favored politicos and dig up (or manufacture) dirt against political opponents.
Whole thing here.
