There are serious issues of public policy involved in the health care debate. We are in danger of losing sight of certain fundamental issues and making wrong choices because of assumptions about what we are doing or what we have not done. I worry about many things, for instance, about the Competition Authority trying to enter into the debate by suggesting that an increased level of market-based indicators and competition or some such thing would improve the health service. I worry about the degree to which many people have capitulated to the ideological position of the Department of Finance that enough money is being spent on health care.
