The confusion of "health care" with medical care is the crucial confusion. Years ago, a study showed that Mormons live a decade longer than other Americans. Are doctors who treat Mormons so much better than the doctors who treat the rest of us? Or do Mormons avoid doing a lot of things that shorten people's lives?

This reminds me of a joke... Why do husbands die before their wives? BECAUSE THEY WANT TO!

I'm surprised that Mr. Sowell didn't draw a bead on the most deliberate confusion of all: The confusion of "health insurance" with "health care"

Dr. Sowell did touch on that in a column not long ago. It rang a bell and here's the column.
