Resumen del Editor
When it comes to our healthcare, we all want the same thing: the care we need, when we need it from people we choose, at a price we can afford. Americans are confused about how to achieve this.
Why must all Americans have the same healthcare structure? If Californians want a single-payer system, if Texans want market-based medicine, and if New Yorkers want Obamacare, why should Washington say no to 86 million Americans?
In this audiobook, you’ll discover:
- How, in Washington, insurance companies practice more medicine than doctors
- What we can do to cure the cancer devouring our healthcare system
- Why StatesCare is the answer to our healthcare nightmares
- How a market-based healthcare system with safety net can work for all Americans
In Curing the Cancer in U.S. Healthcare, Dr. Deane Waldman delivers an eye-opening look at healthcare today, including the shocks he experienced while caring for thousands of children with heart problems.
He studied and trained at Yale, Chicago Medical School (MD), Mayo Clinic, Northwestern, Harvard, and Anderson Graduate Schools (MBA).
Discover how Americans can save money and restore our freedom to choose our healthcare.
“A must-read for physicians, patients, and policymakers alike. Equipped with his vast experience as a pediatric cardiologist, clinician, teacher, researcher, and policy adviser, Dr. Waldman approaches our critically ill healthcare system as he does a critically ill patient. He identifies the root causes of the problems and proposes a workable cure that puts patients first. This is a quick and superb read packed full of information and insight.” (Kristin S. Held, MD, president-elect, Association of American Physicians and Surgeons)

Taking his typically in-depth, historically informed view, Thom Hartmann asks: What if the Supreme Court didn't have the power to strike down laws? According to the Constitution, it doesn't. From the founding of the republic until 1803, the Supreme Court was the final court of appeals, as it was always meant to be. So where did the concept of judicial review start? As so much of modern American history, it began with the battle between the Federalists and Anti-Federalists, and with Marbury v. Madison.

Dr. Marty Makary is co-developer of the life-saving checklist outlined in Atul Gawande's best-selling The Checklist Manifesto. As a busy surgeon who has worked in many of the best hospitals in the nation, he can testify to the amazing power of modern medicine to cure. But he's also been a witness to a medical culture that routinely leaves surgical sponges inside patients, amputates the wrong limbs, and overdoses children because of sloppy handwriting. Over the last 10 years, neither error rates nor costs have come down, despite scientific progress.

Ever since Adam Smith, the central teaching of economics has been that free markets provide us with material well-being, as if by an invisible hand. In Phishing for Phools, Nobel Prize-winning economists George Akerlof and Robert Shiller deliver a fundamental challenge to this insight, arguing that markets harm as well as help us. As long as there is profit to be made, sellers will systematically exploit our psychological weaknesses and our ignorance through manipulation and deception.

The world is a better place than it used to be. People are healthier, wealthier, and live longer. Yet the escapes from destitution by so many has left gaping inequalities between people and nations. In The Great Escape, Angus Deaton - one of the foremost experts on economic development and on poverty - tells the remarkable story of how, beginning 250 years ago, some parts of the world experienced sustained progress, opening up gaps and setting the stage for today's disproportionately unequal world.

If I Betray These Words confronts the threat and broken promises of moral injury—what it is; where it comes from; how it manifests; and who’s fighting back against it. We need better healthcare—for patients and for the workforce. It’s time to act.

Hostile Takeover is a rebellious challenge to the "upper management" of government, who are choking American prosperity and liberty. Matt Kibbe exposes the privileged collusion of Washington insiders - and maps out a proven plan for how to return power from the self-appointed "experts" back to the people. Dubbed "one of the Tea Party's masterminds" by Newsweek, Kibbe reveals how grassroots citizens can and will check the federal behemoth and restore the American enterprise.

In his previous book, The Elusive Quest for Growth, William Easterly criticized the utter ineffectiveness of Western organizations to mitigate global poverty, and he was promptly fired by his then-employer, the World Bank. The White Man's Burden is his widely anticipated counterpunch - a brilliant and blistering indictment of the West's economic policies for the world's poor.

The government is not a neutral arbiter of truth. It never has been. It never will be. Doubt everything. John Stossel does. A self-described skeptic, he has dismantled society's sacred cows with unerring common sense. Now he debunks the most sacred of them all: our intuition and belief that government can solve our problems. In No, They Can't, the New York Times best-selling author and Fox News commentator insists that we discard that idea of the "perfect" government - left or right - and retrain our brain to look only at the facts, to rethink our lives as independent individuals - and fast.

A great read for all wishing to be make informed decisions
We all have skin in the healthcare game as we will all be, if we are not already, patients. I also have interest from an additional perspective as a fairly early career doctor becoming rapidly disenchanted with my chosen career, not due to the work itself but all the things that aren’t the work itself that suck the lifeblood out of my day and what should be the focus which is the care of the patients we serve. With increasing concern for the trajectory of my personal career and the entire field of medicine I am doing what I have been trained to do for over 10 years of medical training, seeking out knowledge, diagnosing the source of the downward spiral. This book has hit on it. If we do not change things we are on an unsustainable and failing track. We do not have enough physicians and the ones we have are being crushed under exponentially expanding bureaucracy, regulations, mandates, red tape. Between this and runaway malpractice decisions (whole different issue, I do hope Dr. Waldman’s book on the topic of tort comes out, I would love to read it), doctors are leaving sooner than the otherwise might, which only exacerbates the problem. Before you call that selfish ask if you yourself would continue in a career where you go into (ever more expensive and higher interest) debt, spend 10+ years of your prime of life doing so while putting off the things your peers are doing like starting families and building nest eggs, only to when you come out enter a previously noble profession of caring for patients only to find that you cannot spend the time you wish with them or perhaps provide the care that you wish due to limitations imposed beyond your control, all the while spending your time on ever increasing absolutely worthless bureaucratic box checking, while the increasing fear of the possible roulette wheel of increasingly voracious and runaway malpractice verdicts hangs over your head (I’m talking about extreme monetary awards far far above and beyond the limitations of malpractice coverage in cases where standard of care not necessarily breached; those are becoming more and more common; of course there should always be accountability for harm due to not meeting standard of care), and watch your pay go steadily down over years and decades in large part secondary to compounding continually annually decreasing reimbursements. Every other aspect of healthcare cost except physicians have gone up at least in pace with inflation, we have been stagnant or cut. The doctor patient relationship is supposed to be the heart and core of health care. Washington is running the show and we are not included at the table, the doctor or the patient. Your health care is not about you or who cares for you in the view and actions of Washington to this current point. The shortage is real and worsening. As a patient and as I watch my loved ones as patients, the wait for care is real and worsening, the costs we are currently paying and will be paying in future is real and worsening. The system as it exists is on a downward spiral. Read the book, make your own decisions, change is needed.
