Rendezvous With Density

Bethany Stotts, December 18, 2009

Will health care reform lead to the rationing of medical care? M. Stanton Evans, author and journalist, argued that it certainly will in a recent Accuracy in Media Take AIM radio show. He also reminded listeners that the push for rationing in health care is far from a recent political phenomenon.

“…I know a lot about our system and I can tell you that the government has done about everything wrong vis à vis our health care system as it could possibly do,” said Evans, who penned the introduction to Accuracy in Academia’s recently published text Voodoo Anyone? How to Understand Economics Without Really Trying.

In the book, the late Christopher T. Warden argued that the current health care system is flawed largely because the government has separated consumers from health care costs and provided perverse tax incentives favoring employment-based plans, which further hide costs from consumers. The text was published posthumously, as former Troy University professor Warden passed away suddenly earlier this year.

AIA Executive Director Malcolm A. Kline noted that “…Chris actually covered every single one of these topics as both a beat reporter for Investor’s Business Daily, a freelancer before that, a radio reporter back in the early ‘80s, and he rose at Investor’s Business Daily to become editorial page editor.”

From the article:

Referring to the ongoing health care debate, Evans joked on the show that policymakers seem to have a “rendezvous with density.” “What you have, it’s just, I don’t know, I have a phrase for this Malcolm [Kline] and it’s a little parody of our president, great President Ronald Reagan and my version of it is: ‘We have a rendezvous with density,’” he said, continuing, “and it’s just like unteachable people, the same stuff over and over again, the same mistakes, the same policies that were proposed back then, here they are again and nobody’s learned anything, apparently…”
